I was just thinking, the 762-seats 174 people, while the 752 seats 172, and 753 seats 216. Both airplanes have two class configuration. My question is, why does a 762 pilot gets paid more then 752/3. I realize that one is a wide body (and has a greater MTOW) and the other one is not, but in a long run the 75s carry just as many or more people.

Pay scales don't have to make sense. You get whatever you negotiate in your contract, unless the company threatens or declares bankruptcy. Then you don't.

If you're trying to compare pay vs. revenue generated, consider that a 767-200 has a greater capacity for cargo than a 757-200 ( even though, according to one of our former leaders, "There's no money in cargo.").
