600KBps = 4800Kbps = 4.8Mbps

Which is 96% of 5Mbps or 80% of 6Mbps. Assuming that you're talking  
about download speed as reported by your web browser or some other  
application, that's not very good delivery. If you really want to  
measure it, you'll need to start snooping around your traffic totals  
and such as reported by ifconfig (among others).
