I think Deluxe will sell well in the beginning, but drop faster than normally for a Mario Kart. Still, if the Switch continues to sell well, I think it can hit 8-10 Millions

Why would it drop faster than normal when the console is selling faster than normal?

Because only a few actually have a Switch already and since there ain't too many good games out on the system yet, sales will probably be initially frontloaded and then drop sharply, setting on a sales level which it will keep for many weeks and months after that. But that level should be relatively high due to the high influx of new Switch owners looking for some great game to play until much more big hitters are available for the console.

Alson Wii U MK8 owners will most probably buy the game either early on when they got their Switch, or not at all since they have already the Wii U version, with little in between.
