Thanks for straightening me out guys. I've since seen both $4 and $6 versions of the fixed grand jackpot. Prior to that, I was thinking all $4 versions were progressives and $6 versions were fixed. So I concocted a convoluted mess ha ha! My bad!!!

It still begs the question why the game developers would place such a low value on the fixed grand jackpot. If the odds are essentially zero if rounded to 11 decimal places, then to paraphrase Dr. Evil, why entice the gambler with a $100,000 jackpot when we could entice them with a $10,000 jackpot? (pinky finger raised to lips...) Not worth discussing, so not looking for any insight. Just an observation.
I think the big progressive jackpot is a wide area progressive. That means shared revenue between casino and manufacturer. The ones with the flat 10K jackpot are probably not shared revenue.
