well that's assuming the sequels are really that much greater. cod4 was a huge jump in quality from 3 (most definitely since cod3 < cod2). not _all_ sequels sell more than the previous game. lumines for psp sold close to a mil according to vgchartz. lumines ii sold 90k.
now, this is just an example of course. but lifetime sales really depends on the quality of the game. the people behind sc2 arent the same people who did sc1. the original team for the most part has gone elsewhere. anyway i think we'll just have to see when there's a demo or something.
