The article mentioned Polymath 8, which lowered the bound from H=7*10^7 to 4680. This bound has since been lowered[0] to 246.

I believe it's 246 iff the generalized Elliott-Halberstam is true, and 4680 iff it's false.
edit: Never mind. You're right. It's 6 assuming the generalized Elliott–Halberstam conjecture is true, and 246 without assuming the conjecture.
