People still use tunnels if their hardware cannot support native ipv6.
But to answer your question if everyone switched to ipv6 _today_ the infrastructure could not support it.
Typically if a router can support 1million ipv4 routes it can only support 256k ipv6 routes....... So yes. we are in trouble.
