It's perfectly possible: Javascript can handle many more decimal
places. For most purposes, it's not necessary.

At the equator, 1 degree is 111320m, which means that 0.000001deg is
around 11cm. Seven decimal places allows you to place a marker to an
accuracy of around a centimetre, which can't be shown on a map. At
higher latitudes, six decimals will be an accuracy of less than 10cm.

Perhaps you're using the API with your own more detailed maps?
