A right circular cone has a base with radius 600600 and height 2007.200\sqrt{7}. A fly starts at a point on the surface of the cone whose distance from the vertex of the cone is 125125, and crawls along the surface of the cone to a point on the exact opposite side of the cone whose distance from the vertex is 3752.375\sqrt{2}. Find the least distance that the fly could have crawled.
