Welcome to iCloud inconsistent storage. It took iCloud over a month to see I added 26GB to it one time. I removed it, and 2 months later, says I'm still using that 26GB even though actual iCloud storage is in the low 100s of MB.
I HATE iCloud storage reporting. Drives me NUTS.
As far as uploading videos - need LOTS of available space, plugged into power, and just let it do its thing. I've got 84.4GB in iCloud Photos.
However... I use OneDrive for my cloud storage.

If you can't see it on iCloud.com (and then going to photos) it's not in the cloud.
Who knows really though, maybe it tries to upload it and pauses - and that partial file is there? Or deleted files - there's a copy of them for 90 days, who knows. It drove me mad. :/
A backup (all of the files minus the selected files in iCloud such as Photos, Mail, Contacts, etc) is compressed and seen as one file. If the total sum of the files is larger than what you have remaining on your iCloud, it will say there is not enough storage.
I hope that made sense as it’s not easy to explain unless you are familiar with how iCloud works.
