Unless you have thousands of GBs to transfer, it shouldn't take that amount of hours. Normally, Wi-Fi transfers are very slow, but Ethernet and Wi-Fi are the only way to transfer files from a PC. Ethernet is a bit faster.
Let it some minutes and check that the remaining time decreases. If not, cancel the migration. What you can do is to use an external disk to transfer your files from the PC to your MacBook Pro, faster and more reliable than Ethernet
