While there are 'Super Typhoons' in the Pacific, there are no equivalent 'Super Hurricanes' in the Atlantic. This is not a question of size of storm, just of nomenclature. A Typhoon becomes 'Super' when its winds get above 150 mph. This is equivalent to a strong Category 4 Hurricane. So a 'Super Hurricane' would effectively be a Category 4 or 5 Hurricane. The U.S. National Hurricane Center (NHC) does use the term 'Major Hurricane', but applies this to any storm over Category 3. So there's no direct equivalence between a 'Super Typhoon' and a 'Major Hurricane': they overlap but not perfectly. Previously, in the 50s and 60s the term 'Great Hurricane' was used instead of 'Major'.
