No, Google, not me, was trumpeting that figure. Google made a publicly-accessible court filing that claimed Oracle demanded up to $6.1 billion. In that particular legal context, Google would not have had to state the number at all (it could have merely referenced it), or it could have redacted it for the general public, but it wanted to put it out.
I wasn't even first to pick it up: Reuters reported on it before I did.
My reporting was nonjudgmental. I just informed everyone of what Google's filing said.
