You lost me there with the 6 million X coordinates in California. 6 million whats starting from where? It can't be feet from the prime meridian, that's not far enough.

I've been scraping my county assessor's GIS database for property outlines and I noticed that the coordinates are huge, as you mentioned. I assumed it was just some fanciful origin but I'd love to know the story.
