Not that it affects the gist of your argument at all, but usually the figure is rounded to 650,000 --- as it is actually 649,740 for a 52-card deck. Since 649 is MUCH more difficult to memorize than 650, I'm curious as to why you rounded it down that way.
Personally I've had between 25 and 30 of these jackpots through the years --- I don't have a "special list" of these so I don't know the exact number for sure --- but I play more than most. I don't have an exact tally of how many hands I've played, so I have no idea of whether I've been luckier or unluckier than average when it comes to these hands. More important, though, for those who play a variety of denominations is whether you get them on "high" or "low" coin-in hands --- however that is defined for you personally.
