Interesting usage of weasel wording and logic. However, while I agree they seem to indicate the time is still seen as 7,000 years, I can see how a JW would argue that point. Notice below it never says its 7,000 years. The reader is left to draw that conclusion THEMSELVES.

The WTS has backed off using the phrase 7,000 years but here it shows the concept is still official.
*** w12 10/15 p. 22 par. 2 Obey God and Benefit From His Sworn Promises ***
Having reviewed his creative works, Jehovah God announced the beginning of a seventh day—not a 24-hour day, but a long period of time during which he has rested from further works of earthly creation. (Gen. 2:2) God’s rest day still has not ended. (Heb. 4:9, 10) The Bible does not reveal exactly when it started. It was some time after the creation of Adam’s wife, Eve, about 6,000 years ago. Ahead of us lies the Thousand Year Reign of Jesus Christ, which will ensure the fulfillment of God’s purpose in creating the earth to be an everlasting paradise filled with perfect mankind.
