I'm unable to tell you again given I've not yet made any comparison between the two, merely quoted the relevant passages from the GAO report.

I do note that the damages number you cite has risen from between 1 & 2 to definitely 2 and these damages are associated with a multitude of legitimate peaceful protests that became a magnet for others to stir trouble, loot and riot on a pretext, start gunfights, etc.

It's a clear false equivalence to compare the single Jan 6th event of faction aligned protesters who invaded and damaged a building disrupting a democratic transition to a multitude of other events and locations across a lengthier time frame that involved many factions across the political spectrum including apolitical criminals of opportunity.
