Six hundred shekels of gold
"About 6.6 kilograms of gold" or "Six and one half kilograms of gold". A shekel is a unit of weight equal to about 11 grams.
Six hundred shekels
"shekels" does not appear here in the Hebrew text, so some modern versions assume instead the unit of bekah, which was equivalent to a half shekel or a metric equivalent of about three kilograms.
