The M2 will most likely be the same. An estimate of how many they will be wiling to churn out per month, but no max number per market (except maybe the UK again).
The real question is, will they continue production after the 2017 date last seen in the computer system? If not, the M2 may be the next 1M in terms of availability and value.

For the record, the UK wasn't the only country to have set production numbers and the UK cars were not tagged with their specific production number. The plaque only said 1 of 450. I believe France was the only country to have specifically production numbered plaques and their set production number was 100. You also failed to mention that BMW over produced the 1M from their initial estimate.
What limited the 1M production was the end of the E82 life cycle and the M2 doesn't have the same issue.
