But we all know that 6.6999... = 6.7.

No, the 6.999999 comes out when you use the java enabled dos program. [Which I have excelled myself by getting to work !]
For others the command is !

Note that 6.6999... is not the same as 6.6999 recurring (which is indicated by a dot over the last stated digit). The symbol '...' is an ellipsis indicating that something is skipped.
