I'm a bit confused by the price display in a sushi restaurant video, see https://youtu.be/V1g0yIBTDjQ?t=608
Do I misread the number or is this a joke (the video has an unusual cut there)?
It shows the price as 1500万0000円, which I would read as 15,000,000円, approximately 150,000.00$ (with exchange rate 100 yen = 1 dollar). Does 万 have another meaning differing from ten-thousand here?

You have read it correctly. 1485万0000円 is indeed 14,850,000 yen, which is way above the average annual income of Japanese people. 万, 億, 兆 and so on can be inserted to help readers quickly grasp the number. (See: https://japanese.stackexchange.com/a/18296/5010)
This restaurant is くら寿司, and you can play various mini-games using their touch panels, including something like a slot machine. See this video. I may be wrong, but this 1485万 may be from one of such games. Or it may be from something entirely different. Either way, it's not the actual charge.

@istrasci I think it's like a odometer of the car you can't rewind. If it shows the price, you have to pay as the price has been displayed in the 回転スシ restaurant!
