Millions of years I believe is just human interpretation. Where in the bible does it mean literal days and why does it have to be after Genisis 1. God can beat science, besides without Him science wouldn't exist. The bible only has one meaning whether it is symbolism or not. It seriously doesn't take God millions of years just to create the universe.

I agree. There is however speculation over whether our 6 days are the same.
To the Jews, from one evening to the next is one day. And this recurs in text. See:
Genesis 1:5 - God called the light day, and the dark night. So the evening and the mornign were the first day.
Genesis 1:8 - God called the firmament Heaven. so the evening and the mornign were the second day.

And so on, according to the New King James Version.
