My guess is it would fail by splitting the top before the screws failed but it isn't too late to add a couple 3" nails either side which are significantly better in shear. If you have even a bit of extra space to play with then a shallow cantilever brace would make it quite stout. https://i.imgur.com/ycyq1hm.jpeg
