 Trying to work out if they mean Friday through Sunday. I think it is as we don't have a full week on sale yet

 Also it has sold 2 million in Japan alone from physical and digital in the first week of sale. A step up from the low 1.3 physical that was reported, so that's almost a third digital  
Other notable records: this is the new record for opening weekend revenue in the US for pokemon. Over 2M in Japan means an insane digital ratio of over 33% there.
