Looking at the demand right now I would not be suprised if the Xbox One X outsells the PS4 Pro.

Obviously the PS4 pro is only 1/5th of the sales of the PS4 brand I think and the Xbox One S will never outsell the PS4 but just looking at reviews, interest and also on who I know that are picking it up the Xbox one X is concidered the "better" 4k console and people with 4k television who already own a PS4 are quite interested.

Anyway, only time will tell but I do think the Xbox One X has a chance to suprise and reach that 2 milion mark after 3-4 months on the market

The numbers you are expecting are absolutely ridiculous. You seem to be making the mistake of looking at two or three countries where preorders are strong and forgetting that these are the only major markets where X1 is remotely relevant (and Australia isn't major). It will not outsell the Pro because the Pro is a PS console and as we have seen, PS and Xbox are working at completely different levels. 

And 2 million in three or four months? How many Xbox One consoles are you expecting to be sold overall in this time period? 10 million? That estimate is increbily out of line with reality.

"Wedbush Securities analyst Michael Pachter recently told us that he's upping his Xbox One X sales forecast from 1 million to 1.5 million for 2017, and now IHSMarkit has raised its numbers as well."

You must be right because Pachter never is xD
