Copy directly from Explorer to OneDrive online, no local copy.
Probably overkill, it's an IT tool but I think it would do the trick, it's the SharePoint Migration Tool, certainly worth looking at for that volume of data anyway. It supports OneDrive for Business as a destination, just point it to the local folder you want to migrate. Where this may fall down though is it recommends 150 GB+ free disk space, unfortunately! You could try doing it in batches and see if that is plausible though someone else may have a better idea.
