Maybe it'd influence the main company strategy if the N9 sold 6 million units in 6 months and they could follow it up with a N9+ selling equally much in the next 6 months.

Before that, they'd have to MAKE 6 million units, which they can't do without changing the manufacturing strategy already.
Very true.

But I do think Nokia could use Meego/Harmattan as a platform for future disruptive devices.

I don't really care if Nokia build 6Million or 600Thousand, so long as I can get ONE.

N900 was a highly individual model. Whilst it has hardly contributed to Nokia's profits it has contributed to the development of Qt and Meego. It has been the last bastion for Nokia power users and geeks standing against the Android onslaught and I can see value in successive devices on a similar scale.
