Isn't low six figures between 1 million and 10 million?

  $XXX,XXX is six figures. Single digit millions ("$X,XXX,XXX") would be seven figures.

    I also wrote an explanation, but after I submitted, I saw three more, all of which beat mine (yours was the first looking at the comment ID), so I deleted it. I personally wish that people would check to see if someone else beat them or wrote a better answer (yours is also a better answer than the other two, but alas this account does not have enough karma to downvote the others), and if so, delete theirs like I did. Oh well.

  1 million: 7 figures 10 million: 8 figures

  No, a million is 7 figures (one followed by 6 zeros)

  “Hardly six figures” could be interpreted as very low six figures.
