Thanks for the help. I am figureing that it is right. The Toilet
must have run full blast on the 6,000 gallon day.

Bummer.

As others have calculated, even if it were pulling a gallon per minute for a
full 24-hour cycle, it would've only gotten 60*24 = 1440 gallons. You'd
need it to be pulling over four gallons a minute to go through 6000 gallons
in a single day--which would be one impressive john, and very, very
noticeable. I don't think I'd be able to put up with that much noise for a
single flush, not to mention all that noise for 24 hours, running
continuously...
