These numbers are arbitrary so this is a bit more of an art than a science. However, this does move the threshold to be double the previous threshold which is much more mathematically satisfying.

… times the significance threshold to 12 times

Seems OK. 12x the threshold feels pretty "large" to me, but then, so does 6x, so 🤷

Yes - everything from 6-12x the significance threshold is a large change and everything 12x and up is a very large change.
