Yeah, Ross Young should probably wait for the leaks of contracts of mass production of parts being agreed to before saying anything. This rumor was kind of nutty to begin with. It's also been a rumor of an updated iMac Pro in the past too. Pretty soon, miniLED will be OBE and it's going be OLED display rumors.
A 5K 120 Hz (ProMotion) Apple external display needs Thunderbolt 5 in order to also be a dock. Apple's monitor vision is a 1 cable connection to a laptop. No laptops have Thunderbolt 5. So, uh, not happening. It could be a plain old monitor, without cameras and TB ports, just plain HDMI 2.1, but that would be a hack for an Apple monitor imo. And, the only Macs capable of driving it shipped about 2 weeks ago.
Thunderbolt 5 should have shipped at least 2 to 3 years ago, but alas no. Maybe next year. Well, more accurately, Thunderbolt 4 should have had 80 Gbit/s bandwidth, instead of being a certification standard with basically no changes to TB3. TB4 is basically TB3 with the optional stuff required.
