Your itinerary for TWOV purposes is solely KIX-PVG-LAX. none of the other flights are relevant. The link to timatic in the wiki is the full text, you need to read the paragraph relevant to Shanghai, which states 144 hours.
If you use an airline provided link, all that link does is give you an excerpt from the full version of timatic, tailored to your travel plans. You’d need to enter Japan as the origin and USA as the destination, and China as the transit.
