600B Euros???
I had the same thought and it took me a minute to figure out.
It's two separate denominations: $600,000 USD and 500,000 Euro.

Wonder how does this reflects on the ongoing Russia-US NATO talks that just wrapped up. Moscow is waiting an official letter from the WH where Russia’s “security concerns” are addressed. Even if Washington expected de-escalation on the Russian-Ukrainian border, this does seem like a good gesture token.

This group clearly wasn't cutting in the right people at a high-enough government level. In Russia, the more you make, legally or illegally, the more you have to pay in bribes. Becoming a political nuisance by attracting international attention from other major governments can increase the amounts substantially.
"we've stopped them, no we wont extradite them or charge them locally"
Putin has told them to lay low for a while or change their handles, this doesn't stop the group or the software from operating.

Ah yes imagine the US would extradite US-Citizens to russia...
I'm not asking for deportation to USA. I don't think anyone should be extradited to the USA given its legal system is stacked against the alleged. But trusting local law enforcement and judicial process in Russia is a fools errand.
Ah yes, FSB are always happy to do that.
