How do I get 2 million on marathon

avoid 3 block clears, they're not worth enough points. figure out shapes that will clear 5+ blocks. Learn tricks to set up combos, set up a volatile shape like a zig zag and put in a "key" of another color you can detonate to allow it to clear. If you can start pulling that off, you can learn to put a key in to detonate the key, and so on. But consistency with big clears and modest combos should get you further than betting on random long combos.

Also, make your own color palette, it always helps people for some reason. Play a bunch and then let your brain dream on it, the subconscious aspect has to sink in overnight.

To add to this - zigzag patterns with a single or double block "capstone" that can fall into is a good thing to learn how to set up. Ideally you should try to set up pyramid shaped clears that chain into each other. Zigzagging also often results in lucky chains anyway.

Three block clears are a trap not just because they score low, but their block positive meaning they leave a block over in the well and thus will fill your well with junk it your not careful. They can be useful, especially as chain starters since they easy to set up, but single 3-clears should be avoided.
