There will not be a single bill of that size, and directly insured costs are likely to top out at a 1-200 million. But the knock-on shipping delays are likely not insured and will weigh heavily on the charter sector (who rent space on the ships by the day): https://lloydslist.maritimeintelligence.informa.com/LL113625...

An interesting stat there is that on the Ever Given alone there are ~20,000 boxes (cargo containers) with an average 20 shipments (from different people) in each. So that's ~400,000 commercial deliveries held up on one ship alone.
