If they don't bundle 7 I don't think it will hit 2m on xbox alone, even with it being a showcase title, in part because from everything I've seen so far, fm6 was a better polished title.

The minor improvements since fm6 are being overshadowed by the cutbacks they made to showcase 4k60 for xbox one x, and the game has suffered as a result of it. 

The game doesn't have any cutbacks overall its a improvement over 6 and I haven't even tried the multiplayer yet.

That is demonstratably false.

Cut backs from trailer to retail game in pit crew, as demonstrated by this thread
Cut backs in lighting quality and corners cut in track design to improve performance (push for 4k/60) as illustrated by this thread
Significant drop in quality of windshield rain effect for internal view as illustrated by this video
Drop in in-race vehicle model quality from FM6, for what should have been identical models, as illustrated by this thread

To go a bit further on the above link, the model has been simplified, cables and nuts removed from tanks, bolts removed from various elements, texture quality paired back on much of the engine components, texture quality on the signage on vehicle paired back, brake lines and upper suspension struts completely removed, etc, all details which return in FM7 during photo mode and photo mode only.
