6.5 Million LinkedIn Password Hashes Leaked

I literally created my LinkedIn account only 2 days ago. And my password was in the list and cracked. Thankfully I don't use it for anything else.

Is it unique enough that you can be sure it's your password, and not someone else's? I ask because the cracked passwords seem to be the simple/obvious ones that are likely to be used by multiple people. If it is strong/unique though, it would effectively confine the hack time to the last 2 days.

Could be a dupe password? Is your password quite strong?
