Yes, 2 pounds per gallon would get you to that starting gravity.
Your mead is stuck. At that starting gravity, that yeast strain would take it dry. You are currently at about 9% ABV, and the yeast can easily get to 18%. It is stuck because it didn't get enough nutrient/energizer, and low pH could also be a factor. Under those conditions, you would get a very long slow fermentation that could continue for months. Worse yet, if you bottle it, you may get bottle bombs unless you stabilize it with sorbate/sulfite in combination (or get it to finish).
There are some things you can do to try and coax the yeast to finish. One is to move it to a warmer spot. If you've kept this in a basement or someplace less than 70F, move it to a nice warm 75-80F area and see if it perks up.
Secondly, you can add yeast hulls, 1 gram per gallon.
Third, check the pH. If it is 3.1 or lower, add enough potassium bicarbonate to get it up to 3.5 (it will probably take 1 tsp per gallon or more).
Fourth, add some yeast energizer (Fermaid K if possible) about 2 grams per gallon.
If none of those things work, then it is time to add a starter that has been acclimated. Your can read how in hightest's sticky at the top of this forum - the instructions for restarting a stuck fermentation. The good news, is that it should be fairly easy to get a 9% ABV mead with a relatively low gravity restarted.
Endeavor to persevere!
