I think it highly possible that you may be right. Big difference between 6 million and 6 trillion.

My only excuse is that in school my math teacher was arrested as a cell leader in the notorious al Gebra movement. Our classroom was littered with weapons of math instruction and I got taken out by a stealth bomber disguised as a pop quiz. It was terrible.

Nice duck and cover.
