That's a good thing if they sold that amount of units however that is still not a big deal. The GS3 is at like 30 million units or will be there by the end of the year and the iphone 5 will probably beat that number.
That initial demand will drop off tremendously but hopefully it will grow with every subsequent release. Personally I think this phone is the best phone available but I don't think Samsung or Apple have anything to worry about.
Amazon needs to get in the phone game to shake things up a bit like they did with the kindle fire. Even better Google should let Amazon handle the sales of this phone in addition to the play store. I think most people would pay a 20 dollar premium to know they would get the phone for sure and that the server would not crash on launch day. They needed to do a preorder type of thing so they know what the demand is in advance of launch day.

Yet Google play never seems to learn from it's previous mistakes and creates huge new ones.
How can they justifiably sell the nexus 4 to new customers on the 27th, yet many of us are still waiting for our orders placed on the 13th to ship. Best part is google has no idea why those orders are still in limbo.
This has turned out to be by far to be the worst customer service experience of my life.
I hope android central does a follow up story on the 13th backorders that are not fulfilled.
