I agree with you Kronos, and the numbers I've seen reported in the UK Amiga press for worldwide sales match your 7 million or so.

20 million Amigas? Wishful thinking, I'm afraid.  Not surprisingly, numbers of Amiga users have always been inflated beyond reality, even more so recently as certain companies try to convince the public they have a healthy market for their products.

5 million in the UK alone? No chance.

It was more like 2 million, and that's all the models put together.

in an amiga format magazine i read commodore celebrating 1 MILLION users in the UK.
this was also dated in 1992!!! when the amiga still had a lot of life left in it

Yep, that fits in with the 1.5 million to 2 million maximum figure for the UK overall (most likely closer to 1.5 than 2)

Add that to the confirmed figures Peter Kittel posted for Commodore Germany, and bearing in mind that these were the biggest Amiga markets bar none, and even the 7 million figure for world-wide sales is looking optimistic.
