I do think this is hyperbole.
Sinking a US aircraft carrier would be a direct attack on the sovereignty of the United States.
It would e like sinking Rhode Island(slightly bigger).
Retribution would be overwhelming.

Any scenario (unlikely as it may be) that involves china successfully destroying 2 US carriers would also involve their confidence in being able to destroy the rest in their coastal region.
The initial attack likely never takes place.
