Government shut down

[kwcat]

I was just curious if anybody that reads this might understand these numbers.? Watching Local nonstop news tonight they were talking about the shutdown being over. They said during the time of the shutdown it cost the US economy $15 billion per week due to the fact that 670,000 workers were furloughed.
Simple math says that each one of those workers then was making $22,000 per week. Did I misunderstand something or did they just semantically miss relay the news?

As far as me, the shutdown cancelled $4,000 worth of work. So, maybe “they” counted all the projects placed on hold.
