I doubt they'll reach 5M, they seem overly confident in it.
42 days is a long time. They will reach and exceed $5 million.
It doesn't seem likely. It's been 17 days and they've made 147,500 extra = ~8676 a day. If that average was maintained (and given that the #s for the first few days were much higher, that seems unlikely), they'd collect another ~365k, which still leaves them almost 100k from 5M.
Granted, maybe once the backer portal is actually fully up and running (with pledges transferred so people can modify theirs) we'll see a spike. If we don't, no waifu for us. :D
Just as the FIG campaign picked up speed in its final few days, I'm sure the slacker backer will too. I think it will reach it, and even if it doesn't it will be so close to it that Feargus would probably put some Obsidian's own money to cover the rest, like Kem0sabe said. If it falls short it won't fall short by very much.
