In other words they do have considerable military might for just about anyone.
It's not the head count that matters though. What matters is striking distance and air dominance. There is no place on Earth we can't touch with precision weapons and invisible planes, and we own the skies. For NK, having a starving 1.2 million man military only means there will be more dead people than necessary.
