Getting 1 million people to Starship Mars is a technically conceivable goal, but the honest answer right now is that even the first human footstep on Mars has not happened yet, and the timeline keeps moving. Even Musk himself frames it as a logistics problem: "A few people running around on the surface of a hostile environment is not going to make it self-sustaining. You're going to need on the order of one million people, and a million tons of cargo." The number isn't arbitrary.
