And they did announce it, alongside the 3.5 million news. They shipped and sold 1m in Japan(physical and digital) and since Famitsu reported a sell through of 95.9% for the physicals then that means the rest of the 1 million are digital sales. Add this week's sales then that would amount to more than 1m sales for FF7r in Japan.

Don't see a sell through number there.

As for shipped and sold, interpreted it as the amount of physical copies they shipped (not necessarily sold) + the amount of digital copies they sold= 3.5 million.  I could be wrong about that, but otherwise, it would make more sense to me for them to say that they sold 3.5 million.

You can find the link in the article itself. It goes here: https://www.mcvuk.com/business-news/ff7-remake-well-received-in-japan-despite-lockdown-but-switch-hardware-sales-plunge-as-supply-tightens/ 

And I'm referring mainly to the Japan sales numbers which is 1 million.
