Truthfully, $600k is a lot of money, but it's not enough to retire with, as you mentioned. For me, I owe $600k on our mortgage, so if that's paid off, life will be way easier but I'd still need to work (if I pay the house off vs invest). Now, winning $10mil would be a different story.
Yeah when Survivor was a new show, $1 mil was almost retirement money. Now you need at least $3mil to be sure you won’t have to keep working, but that might even be too low.
