Doesn't matter if it's a propeller or jet, the airplane is pushing against the air, not the treadmill. It will move forward and take off. There is no treadmill in the world that could move fast enough for the friction in the wheels to keep up with the thrust of the airplane, and if there were such a treadmill, it would spin the wheels so fast that the tires would explode.
