1,000,001 is the smallest in that range, that's pretty interesting
1,000,002 is the smallest number greater than 1,000,001, that's pretty interesting too
etc.

1,000,001 is the smallest in that range, that's pretty interesting
1,000,000.1 is smaller, and 1,000,000.01 is smaller yet!

2 million because it is the largest, and, given the universe of discourse, suggests a quantity of money which one might receive, in US dollars.

The number in this mercenary context is the more tantalizing, in the sense that it is not "set for life" money, but could enable a non-stupid person to be comfortable and pursue much better opportunities for an extended period.
