In a meeting engagement with France, I faced 40 Char bis, 19 H-39, 15 Somoa, 6 Char D2 and 270 other units including over 30 indirect art fire units. I don't think 46 Char tanks is realistic either.

CharB1's were concentrated in formations (although perhaps not always). Here you see the OB of the french armored formations in 5/40:

The DCR's each had 2 battallions of 34 B1's each. So 46 Chars is not unrealistic as it is only 2/3 of the total number in a heavy half-brigade. At best facing 46 is not likely, but certainly possible.
Also see scenario 277 which is based on historical events.
