Most of us have no intuition about millions of anything let alone billions, same as we have a good handle on seconds and days and years but start talking about nanoseconds or centuries and most of us have completely lost any meaningful frame of reference.
The difference between a million and a billion dollars is approximately 1 billion dollars.
