I could take you through the math, but only in some alternate universe where the laws of mathemetics are different. Here in our universe, I would claim a typo where I meant .6 of a minute (36 seconds) but some how typed 1.6 minutes and it sneaked through. Sorry about that, and good catch.

I’m seeing 6,000,000 views for 60,000 hours as equaling only 36 seconds per view (0.6 minutes) not the 1.6 minutes you came up with.

Of course, it’s hard to draw conclusions based on just a few data points. It would be helpful to know how many unique viewers are behind that 6 million views number.
