Well you're talking about SP. I don't think anyone is too worried about the power of elephants in SP. Though if you can't resist building them yourself they might make winning very boring, because the AI has absolutely no chance against them.

I wouldn't be against elephants being size 5 and mammoths 6. There are certainly numerous dom3 creatures larger than elephants, like the machaka fetish pretender for instance.

I think there are a lot of creatures with weird sizing in dom3 though. Krakens have a graphic that's like size 3 or 4 in size, but they're size 6 iirc.
