There is no difference between the long scale million and a short scale million.
There is a difference between the billion in these two scales.
The American use the short scale so 1 billion to them is 1,000,000,000 or 10^9.
We used to use the long scale so 1 billion is 1,000,000,000,000 or 10^12.
It should be noted that for simplicity reasons especially with currency the UK have switched to the short scale system as well.
