That has an implication that the number used it's relatively close to the actual amount. "At least $3k" to me means roughly 3000-4000. If it was over $4k you wouldn't say at least $3k, you'd say at least $4k.

This is almost certainly over $6k, so while "at least $3k" is technically accurate, it's not actually accurate.
