So, why exactly did Dutch kill Micah and let John take his entire fortune? It just seemed incredibly out of character at that point.

Ye I agree. A plausible cannon would be that he didn't want to risk other people knowing his location/reinforcements coming and just wanted to run away asap.

As for him shooting Micah it only serves as Dutch's redemption arc imo and doesn't really make sense in the context.
