Considering sales are trending downwards in the US and Japan had a big sales bump because of HSG5 I don't think the 100k/week is a good estimation of PS3 sales in the coming 2 months. New software should prevent it from falling down too much, but I think it will take until the end of october for PS3 to reach 5M.

I think your wrong about the highlighted part, before hsg5 was released the ps3 has been near 100k monthly around 80k, but the price drop has held it steady from above 40k, its been staying like that for the past 4 weeks. I think it might stay at 100k weekly, with that new bundle in europe.

The difference between doing 80k/week and 100k/week is actually pretty big, it is the difference of taking 10 or 13 weeks to get another 1M sold. And considering the pricedrop was only 3 week ago PS3 still needs to prove it can maintain sales of above 40k for a longer period of time.
