No, it's not telling you that. Your iPhone is telling you that you need at least 1.35 GB to install the update. The statement of your iCloud space is on Apple's servers (66.9GB of 200GB leaving 133.1GB) but this not on your iPhone. They are different things. You cannot increase the space on your phone.

Delete content on your phone or update using a computer.
