621-mile [1000 km] range
Quit inventing nonexistent precision when doing unit conversions. If the original source quotes 1000 km, which is obviously already an estimate (being a round number) and has only 1 sig fig, "600-ish" miles is all the imperial unit precision you get.
- Excuse me? I don't do imperial, I am from continental Europe. :)
  
  It was aimed at the article writer, not you, although I see now that the actual headline was only in imperial and you added the metric conversion, so I understand why it may have seemed otherwise. You actually converted it back with an appropriate amount of precision, so that's good.
