A Yonkou title is not one that can be gained by a one man individual crew, that much has been made obvious. A Yonkou is greatly aided by his crew and allies and there is where influence comes in. Whitebeard wasn't simply feared cause he was a Yonkou, he was feared because he commanded the world's strongest crew and the number of his allies were great in numbers. If he came to the war alone, he wouldn't achieved squat and the Marines wouldn't have dreaded a war with him, what made him truly fearsome was the strength of crew he commanded as well as his powers.
Read on to what Garp says, "The Marines and The Shichibukai exist to counterbalance them" and "Their power is so influential that "Three Powers" become unbalanced, the peace of the world would crumble" Garp is obviously not only speaking of them as individuals but what they are capable of as crews. Unless of course you believe The Marines and The Shichibukai exist to balance the monstrously strong captains without taking the crews into the equation?
Logic says Mihawk > Shanks
