You are absolutely correct. Just tried it myself, as I should have before replying to your post. I assumed the confusion was about the notation, not the object. Looks like a real live problem to me!
The OSC Specification supports 64bit numbers, but they require an "h" type tag to be properly defined. OSCx might not support the 'h' tag, you would have ask the developer.
What's the link between 3e+006 and 64-bit numbers?
3000000 is representable exactly as both a float32 and an int32 number. For int32 the upper bound is about two billion, and for float32 it's much higher.

I just said the first thing I thought of, I'll take more care next time. the upper limit for floats is a lot higher than I thought!
