The phrase "six-figure salary" is so strange. We're almost always referring to slightly above $100K. Does anyone ever say "I make six figures" and mean $900K, or even half a million?

I’ve heard people say mid six figure (400-600) and high six figure (700+). If people just say six figure I expect 100-300k.

It's a convenient floor for the time being. At some point inflation will probably render it useless and we'll come up with a new phrase.
