Seems unlikely, 3 million is a strong lead, and it seems that it's rare for a console to outsell another console by 100,000+ in any given month (post launch). I also don't expect the One X to be the best selling of the Xbox One options long term. So while it might give MS a little shot in the arm initially, or here or there, if the games and features of the Xbox One in general aren't attracting new buyers (especially at the sub $300 price point), I don't think the extra power of the One X will do much to change their overall appeal or market share, especially at the premium price. Unless the 4k and/or better performance comes to be seen as the essential experience in the coming year or two. In that case, the One X could be positioned as the "only"/ideal way to experience games. If that becomes a popular perception, particularly for multiplatform games, I could see MS closing the sales gap.
Other than that, they need to convince people that their games and features are superior. Although the Xbox gets the lion's share of play time in my house, we all know they've struggled to position themselves like that with the majority of gamers.
