I'm not familiar with the incident mentioned, however it is worth mentioning whether the aircraft came within 600 feet laterally or vertically. Aircraft can be vertically separated by 600 feet and still be within the legal 'standard separation' as Air Traffic Controllers know it. Laterally is a different kettle of fish, though.

Keen though the VATSIM virtual on-line ATC people no doubt are, it is not real-life and therefore I don't think that they are an authoritative source of information regarding real life ATC procedures. The first line of the linked page contained a major inaccuracy, therefore I've deleted the reference.
