4.56 is the final drive ratio, not the rear axle ratio. 6th gear in a Toureg
is .69 and driven thru the current axle ratio the engine revolves 4.56 times
for each wheel or axle revolution. The Toureg has a rear axle ratio of
somewhere around 3.15.

That's the point - it seems everyone has heard the phrase and understood it
except you. However, you are going to make an *** of yourself by justifying
it to the bitter end, instead of saying "Oh right" and shutting up, no
doubt.

With a rear axle ratio of 3.15, and a 6th gear of .69, the overall
drive ratio is .69 x 3.15, or 2.17. Now if the person you "corrected"
was right, then a 6th gear of .69 and a final drive ratio of 4.56
would be a total final drive ratio of 3.146...which is what I recall
as the actual numbers.
