There may have been a handful of American mobsters who could have been out earning him but I’m not sure if the Italian Mafia was the powerhouse at that time that it soon became in the late 80s early 90s.
That's hard to say at the time ( 1968-73) overall. It should be around $100 million earned in that short period overall in Frank Matthews Network. Probably $300 million+ in this this time frame. Hence his status in the heroin trade and only other peer would be Leslie " Ike" Atkinson. Still interesting that their Southern ties is to the same state and influences still there.
