1920x1080 ~= 2 million pixels. Assuming an optical scanning system, you could give them the benefit of the doubt that they can route R, G, and B through a single light point during scanning.
I presume a "light point" is some sort of shaped structure on their glass which allows the scanned light to escape to the eye when requested. And in theory, might be a place where they can do interference cancellation of incoming light to darken points. All their hype probably points to metamaterials-style shaping of light.
Remember that pixels aren't rectangles (hence why scaling images larger always looks more blocky or blurry than native res), they're point samples. So a "light point" should be equivalent to a pixel in the simple case. Whether or not they can bend light between points to make it "infinite", who knows. Any of that is always going to be limited by the resolution that the GPU can crunch in time.
