You have to know that the treadmill will burn more calories than an elliptical machine. The elliptical showing more calories burned only because you can go at a much higher pace and period than on a treadmill.
Also you have to know that those numbers are average for age, sex or weight. You can consume more calories that these machine are showing.
The treadmill workouts are much harder because your legs have to do much more effort. Just like running on a treadmill is much easier than running on the ground. I would not look at the calorie meter at all truthfully.
In the end you don’t have to worry if you burn or not more calories on elliptical on a treadmill. What is important is that you doing your workouts and you become and healthier person. Train on whatever machine you like most
