Usage notes
Until the early 20th century, million behaved much like an ordinary quantificational noun (such as pair or handful). That is, it inflected in the plural when modified by a numeral greater than 1, and was separated from the noun it quantified with of, as in: five millions of pounds (rather than the modern equivalent, five million pounds).
