Is ‘big’ an official designation? What if the next one is over 6.0? Would that be ‘really big’?

Not sure about “big”.
If it’s 8 or over, it’s a “great” one.

And Sylmar, Whittier, San Francisco, and Northridge were "really, really BIG!"

6.07 would be 90 times stronger than this 5.8 — each point is 10 times stronger than the 1/10 of a point below.
