Does anyone else also get the price of Bitcoin shown over a 3 million USD conversion rate?, The rate kept changing randomly, a few times, I saw it was around 3M, 1M, and 5M.

Just like hosseinimr93 mentioned, it's actually the source where your Electrum software is getting price updates from. This technically means that ELECTRUM does the math based on the source price it is provided with and the outcome would be seeing a huge ton of bitcoin on your wallet. Also, I've never had a similar issue because mine is usually always set to coin gecko by default.

That's a mind-blowing price that anyone could hope it will happen in the near future lol. Unfortunately, it just an error in the source of price, probably from api source of the websites it came from coincap as already mentioned.

A bitcoin enthusiast would probably say that's bitcoin's price in some years from now.

The problem is with the source of price.
Your electrum wallet is getting the bitcoin price from Coincap wesbite which is showing the bitcoin price incorrectly.

Go to "Preferences". After that, go to "Fiat" tab and change the source from the dropdown menu.

It worked. By the way, is ~~Coincap (CoinMarketCap)?~~ I just read the latter part of your post; it's not CmC.
