I'm sure this part of the "boring details" omitted.

But what was the actual timeout and distance?

Presumably 60-70% VF of PVC coated copper?

So a 5ms timeout would be a 500mile run?

		Honestly burst out laughing as I saw the FAQ section covering the timeout. Thanks for sharing the link. The ultimate explanation that he just pinged known distances to calculate the time and distance relation is actually brilliant I'm not sure it would have occured to me particularly quickly to just experiment.

It was a fake story he made up to help in his job search. Don't expect any of the details to add up.
