Launch day/week sales aren't a good indication of a successful console. Just look at the Vita, it had a pretty good launch and so did the 3DS. We know what happened with the 3DS, and look at how the Vita is performing.....
So to answer your question, no, I don't think Wii U will beat the PS2 record. The supply isn't enough and the competition is too strong. Don't forget that we got iPhones and iPads that kids are asking for these days. These things are indirectly competing for your money now more than ever.
