Using the same maths will result in around 500kb ram for one cover displayed. For 500 covers you might end up in using 256mb of ram (in case all covers are loaded once rather than 6 covers on demand per slide).
I very much doubt that the library loads all covers in your library into RAM; it would be far more sensible to load them for each page as it's displayed.
