Rio, any version will do. They can all handle million nodes on common 
hardware, no magic at all. When hundred of millions of billions then we 
might need to look into specfication more in detail. But in that case with 
that kind of data there are other bottlencks for a social network or any 
web appp that needs to be taken care of as well.

I fail to see how this is connected to your attempt to list 1M users in one 
go at the first page. You would want to seek if there is a relationship and 
return that path between users. You need two start nodes and seek a path by 
traveser the relationsip rather than scan tables and that would be the 
comparison.
Otherwise if you really need to present that many "things" just paging the 
result with SKIP,LIMIT. I has never made sense to present 1M of anything at 
a time for a user. Again, that wouldn't really serve your experiment much 
good to prove graph theory.

What is the result of MATCH(U:User) RETURN count(U); ?

Also when you do your test make sure to add the warm/cold cache effect 
(better/worse performance)
