How do you reach that conclusion? What if they started travelling here a million years ago? Why do you also assume they would be at least a million light-years away? They could only be 50. 500. 5000.

If they had the technology to travel at the speed of light I'm sure they could come up with some kind of kinetic shielding. That's more plausible than reaching the speed of light anyway.
Either way. It's all speculation.
