I don't think his surviving Auswahlen had to do with his power level: Yhwach could've easily targeted Echt Quincy, but didn't because he wanted to get rid of only the "impure" one. The way Yhwach described it, Uryū simply possesses some quality/ability that allowed him to resist having his powers taken.
