PI Export Tax: why are my export taxes so much higher than I've read that they should be

I keep finding data out there which states the export tax for P3 (Specialized Commodity) is 600 ISK per item. I am exporting 141 pieces of Robotics, and my transfer cost is 997,000 ISK. That is much, much higher than the 84,600 my calculator tells me it should be.

What am I missing here?

Thanks!

Crucible patch notes and dev blogs?

The fact that taxes are now calculated based on (recent) market prices and not some imaginary fantasy base price that was a small fraction of the market price?

I took a quick look around on the wiki, it appears to have the new tax system mentioned here and here but it hasn't been updated here. I wonder who updates these things.
