How do you get from 620,000 to $1 billion? The $5000 per day fine, doubles every week I believe. Thus the first week costs $35000, the 2nd week costs $70000, the 3rd week costs $140000, etc.

Ah, wakarimasu. Thanks - the "doubling" wasn't mentioned in the story.

I thought it possibly might do that; I didn't know it did for sure.
