Wow, fantastic :-( So this had nothing to do with the timing of the mass-upload?
Commons has just reached 6 million files! At 10:17, January 31, 2010, Sailing_on_Ullswater_-_geograph.org.uk_-_173422.jpg became our 6 millionth file on Commons!
Well, the mass uploaded increased our numbers a lot. I don't think we would have passed the 6m mark yet without that bump. And with thousands of geograph images being uploaded, other files have it hard to be uploaded precisely at the milestone.
