"Many people doubted it would get to 2 million ! "
Sorry, but I'm gonna have to put a big 'citation needed' sign right there. I can't remember seeing a single person saying that.
To be honest, 3 million is a very nice milestone, and I suspect it will continue to sell well for quite a while, but the previous games in the franchise sold 3.74 and 3.13 (Infact, God of War 1 is actually over 5 million and GoW 2 is on about 4.5 mill if you include GoW collection). To say that God of War 3 was hyped and advertised a bjillion times more, and no doubt cost a lot more to create, I'm going to hold back with the balloons and streamers for the time being.
