What gets left out of these time estimates is the error bars. Lets assume the claim that the evolution happened in a few million years is true, then what has happened in the original estimate was 10 million +-8 million years and the new estimate is 3 million +-1.5 million years. The two estimates actually overlap and all we are doing is improving the precision of the estimate. This happens in science all the time.
