I had to go double check your maths, but you're right. Those numbers are accurate. Was thinking about this example:

Battlefield 2 uploads in the region of 40-60Mb/hour, combine that with TeamSpeak or Ventrillo with a good codec (6-8Kb/sec), and you've easily doubled that.

Thats aweful close to your upload limit, and thats just one user, doing one thing - playing. Hopefully kid brother isn't on the webcam at the same time, otherwise this normal family will be flagged by VM as an abuser of their network, and capped.
