That might be because if you seperate Dallas from Forth Worth, the Dallas area would be about 5 million people.
As austlar1 mentioned, the two cities are too intertwined and there is a lot of people and economic activity in between them that tie the entire metro together. Even if you did peel off Fort Worth, Dallas still would be on the same level as Houston and Atlanta.
