Million

One million is a thousand thousand, or 10⁶. It can also be expressed as the prefix Mega, when dealing with metric, SI, or SI-derived units.

The million is sometimes used in the English language as a metaphor for a very large number, as in "Never in a million years" and "You're one in a million".
