This was my observation in KPMG and my good friend from PWC says it's also around there in PWC. Unless EY/Deloitte is drastically different, I don't think it's realistic to expect to be made partner just by reaching a SM grade.

I think it's more of knowing whether you stand a chance or not, rather than getting promoted from SM to partner. It's hard to gauge when you have only worked 5+ years as partner is still many years ahead, but by the time you reach SM partner could be 5 years away only and you should be able to assess the situation to determine if you have a shot.
