Why didn't settlers of white European descent manage to outnumber and replace the native population in Southern Africa like they did in North America and Australia?

Didn't you just answer your own question? Disease is far more effective than humans at wiping out whole populations. Undoubtably, there were many massacres of native peoples in all three of these areas, but never a coordinated effort to try to kill every last one of them. Such an effort would make the holocaust look like a picnic.
