Well I know a dev at a major publisher recently messed up a canonical meta implimentation on a single job site and that cost over 1/2 a million £ in less than a week.

And in the past I was admin in charge of a billing system for British Telecom and when we had our first million pound month (about $5,000,000 in today's money) the CTO (one of Vint Cerf reports I believe) Nudeged me and said this had better be right or we are both out of a job :-)
