Was the $1.5 million only to lower the 6 months? Does that mean that if he had accepted the 4 months, he wouldn't have had anything to pay?

Well from my understanding the 4 months is not what he would get for sure, that is just what the prosecutor would tell the judge to do. He could still get anywhere between 4 months and 50 years (the maximum after the prosecutor added even more charges) but since he plead guilty as part of the deal he could no longer fight it in court.
