But 0.6 is the width of the cable, right? The connector is still larger than that and need to fit through the tight spaces. Or am I missing something?

Yes, it's the width of the cable. If your cable is pre-terminated, then yes you have to be aware of the dimensions of the connectors if you are having to feed it through small openings. However if you're like me and go the non-destructive route of routing the cable through doorways and along baseboards, walls, and ceilings there is no issue.
