Very strange source. Some of those cities only have their city proper population. For example Arnhem has towns like Oosterbeek, Elst, Huissen, Velp and Rheden as "suburbs", which would take it easily over 200,000. Same for Nijmegen (Wijchen, Malden, Beuningen), Breda, Maastricht and I'm probably missing some. Furthermore Almere is missing. So, the quiz is well executed, but I don't like the source.

I get your point. But the source is taken from Statistics Netherlands. This quiz is listing "agglomerations" and in this case only Arnhem city proper falls into the definition. There may be several different reasons for that. Apparently the "urban region" definition is wider (Arnhem, pop. 355,745) and perhaps that would've been more relevant.

You should allow Den Haag and Den Bosch for 's Gravenhage/The Hague and 's Hertogenbosch. They are the most common names for the two places in the Netherlands.
