basically here the voltmeter acts as a resistor. So consider it as a resistor
so when its resistance is 1K ohms , the voltage divides in 1:1 ratio
but when its resistance increases to 1000000 ohms, which is huge compared to 1000 ohms, therefore almost all the voltage goes to the voltmeter .. as in a series circuit current is constant and v is proportional to r
