That's not such a huge achievement, a Vickers Machine Gun once fired 100,000 rounds in one go at Savoy Trench on the Somme on 24th August 1916. Admittedly, they were water cooled which helped but still, that's some achievement. M60? Pah! You want one of these:

I've never understood how the water jacket cools those things - is it some sort of siphon arrangement?

Used to urinate in it to cool the thing as well.

The MetalStorm electronically initiated stacked projectile weapon system can fire one million rounds in one minute.

Total loss evaporative cooling, I think, like you see on old stationary engines.

Very simple, the water around the barrel in the jacket cools the barrel until the water starts to boil and evaporate away. The water turned to steam goes through the pipe into the condensor can, while more water/urine/whatever they could lay teir hands on was tipped into the barrel jacket at the top. The condensing can is there to catch the steam as water was often in short supply so it could be re-used, simple.
