It’s folks taking from two different books and testaments even then saying six days of creation in Genesis and a reference in 2 Peter, “With the Lord a day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years are like a day,” means creation has to be 6,000 years old or thereabouts.

Not quite.

It’s from adding up the ages associated with the ‘begats’.

Written at a time when the reader would have no concept of millions or billions, intended to be understood by most.
