It is given in dollars per hour. Compared to the cost of flying a F-35, a 51% attack would be like flying 20 F35s at the same time. Nothing too expensive for the military budget. It is just a squadron.
EDIT: The updated cost is here: https://www.crypto51.app/ https://www.crypto51.app/
With the new hashrate, that would be only 16 F-35s
