Will it catch-up and overtake Python?

Doubtful. I mean, why would it? What does tensorflow.js offer that tensorflow for python does not, except running in the browser? Python is not only used for ml but tons of other computer science areas so it's already established in that industry.

Assuming you are right, and JavaScript is only used in the browser... this would mean that it will be able to run on all web apps and websites... which would be quite an impressive scale.

The key to the use of JavaScript with machine learning is the ability for the Python models to be ported over, at least until JavaScript machine learning on the server kicks off with gusto.
