Yep, it's a new record! Made a thread about it here:
However, I think it has a shot at making a record of its own - 4 consecutive weeks of selling 1 million copies worldwide, and 5 weeks overall (one in November).
Now, this may sound a little crazy, as not even Wii Sports (bundled with the Wii) has been able to pull this off. As far as I know, only Modern Warfare 2 (PS360 combined) has managed 3 consecutive million selling weeks, while NSMB could have had a shot at 6 (if only it topped 1 million this week!).

Wii Sports holds the record for most million selling weeks total, though that's obvious since it's bundled with the Wii. The only other comparable game is if the MW2 skus are combined, it has at least 4 million selling weeks total, up to 6 if PC sold 49k week 5, or 38k week 6. That'd be an impressive record on its own, though I suspect there may be adjustments to these games, so I'd wait before declaring anything.
