My 1968 200D had the 500,000 and 750,000 km badges.

My roommate has been looking for the 100,000km badge as he has a 200,000 km already.

The different sizes has more to do with different years they were made. At one time, the really high mileage badges were gold plated, but now they are all identical.
here is what they look like the 100K and 200K are pretty big and the 500K is gold and smaller (it looks newer, maybe 80's)
