It's buried, but it's there:

All other things being equal, Members who have Million Miler Status will clear before Members that do not hold Million Miler Status. For Members who hold Million Miler Status, the Member with the higher number of lifetime flight miles will clear first.
It's not based on MM tier, but rather lifetime miles within the MM ranks. So, it's not so much that 2MM status clears before 1MM status, but rather that both 1MM status and 2MM status have the same upgrade priority, and 2,000,001 miles will clear before 2,000,000 miles, will clear before 1,999,999 miles.
