600 kilobytes = 0.6 megabytes

kilobyte = 1000 bytes

megabyte - 1,000,000 bytes

These conversions are wrong, and irrelevant. The OP never talks about megabytes, and your numbers should be 1,024 and 1,048,576.

To go from kilobytes to megabits, you multiply by 0.8192. His download speeds are ~5.5 to ~6.4 megabits per second.
