Your eye notices more difference between a 5 pixel image and a 10 pixel image than between a 900 000 pixel image and a 1 million pixel image.

Here are the real values for a 16:9 monitor (most common aspect ratio nowadays):

2160p: 3840×2160.

1440p: 2560×1440.

1080p: 1920×1080.

720p: 1280×720 = 921 600 pixels.

480p: 854×480 = 409 920 pixels.

360p: 640×360 = 236 160 pixels.

240p: 426×240 = 102 240 pixels.
