I think the calculation is correct but you try it and see.

The calculation may be correct but if your figures are right then you have a serious problem with your setup because it shouldn't be moving 600Mb of data each month while idle
At home there are 2 pcs on a router, we montiored both pc's over a 2 day period and even with browsing, downloading emails etc we were still within the limits for our connection speed.
