You need to look at the projections on that site a little more carefully as they come with uncertainties plus they change on a daily basis. Indeed right now, the projection is 390 at the predicted peak, but that number is +/- 1664/317 (I suspect there is a log scale involved in the calculation which is why + is so much greater than -). At the moment, the hospitilzation rates are within predicted values. It's just fortunate that they are currently at the lower end of the predictions.
