Will it be same when an external system trying to create files/attachment in salesforce using salesforce REST API https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/atlas.en-us.api_rest.meta/api_rest/resources_list.htm#inserting_a_contentversion

Yes, those limits are globally applied. Note that some APIs will have a lower limit, such as a ContentVersion created by SOAP (which will be limited to about 37MB because of the 50MB payload limit), but using specified APIs, such as creating a ContentVersion using REST API with form/multipart will support 2GB file sizes.
