What might one call a huge sum? (9,6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

telephone number

This clue is a double definition.

'what might one call' is the first definition.

'a huge sum?' is the second definition.
(can humorously refer to a very large number)

(Other definitions for telephone number that I've seen before include "that may be kept in cell" , "Very large figure" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
