I think the reference is to possible civilian deaths mostly in SOUTH Korea -- due to a massive conventional artillery bombardment of Seoul, with nerve gas thrown in for good measure.
I gathered that, but one million is still a low estimate for an all-out war for either side. If NK drops a nuke on Seoul, they would be committing mass suicide.
