I'd expect the K-5 would beat the 5DmII, which is a poor AF performer
by Canon standards (and shares its basic AF unit with the Rebels, not
the better bodies), the 7D is another story, like the Nikon D300(s)
the 7D's AF performance rivals the true pro bodies.

The 2MP thing was a little tongue in cheek, Canon's 18MP sensor is not
terribly good and can't outresolve a 12MP sensor at higher ISO's.
