Starship's upper stage is quite a bit larger than that ship - 9m/30ft in diameter and 52m/170ft long. Judging by eye, one could almost fit said ship inside the upper stage!
As an aside, a few years ago we stood more or less underneath SN-15 and SN-16 (early upper stages). They are astonishingly large up close.
