Hard to say whether this particular example is true, as the other comment points out. But for top-tier engineering talent, that kind of salary isn't unheard of.

I'm certainly still a far shot from it, though...

Why? Someone who programs a real game changer for Google is worth much more than that. It would be a bargain.
