When rocket scientists say "any two" they usually mean it. It can probably tolerate more, if they fail just right, but you can't assume that.
And it seems plausible. The layout of the SuperDraco clusters is not equidistant; it's more of an "X". If you lose one cluster, the other nearby one can provide the makeup thrust without being too unbalanced, and there's still X and Y control authority from the other pair.
