One pumpkin ripening lots of small ones growing.

My squash patch is overgrown but I did clear leaves around the biggest pumpkin, about the size and weight of a medicine ball.  The other squashes, sweet dumpling and butternut have no fruit they have had lots of flowers but nothing to call a fruit yet.  Should I cut my losses and clear out everything bar the pumpkins?
Time waits for no man and I can't wait for growth.
