I should also note that whilst I used the year you provided for the deportation when I said '450 years' (until 587), for clarity I should note that the Jewish exile was actually reckoned from early 597 BCE (prior to Nisan). So, strictly speaking it was actually 439 years from David until the deportation. But that makes no difference to how entirely wrong you are.
There are so many different accounts as to which year this or that ocurred. No one knows for sure. A generation has to do with child birth. My evidence is reliant upon prophetic fulfillment, a known fact of the amount of years for womens furtility, and coincidental time periods........there are some that even dispute the amount of years that men have lived upon the earth so who knows for sure?

Abram's origins and calling [edit]
Abram's Counsel to Sarai (watercolor circa 1896-1902 by James Tissot)
Terah, the tenth in descent from Noah, fathered three sons, Abram (later called Abraham), Nahor and Haran. Abraham's birth had numerological significance for the authors of the Genesis story: his first year commenced exactly 1600 years after the Creation, or the square of forty, a biblical generation and one of the most common round numbers in the biblical literature. [6]
Haran fathered Lot (who was thus Abraham's nephew), and died in his native city, Ur of the Chaldees. Abram married Sarai, his (probably half-) sister, who was barren. Terah, with Abram, Sarai and Lot, then departed for Canaan, but settled in a place named Haran, where Terah died at the age of 205.( Genesis 11:27-11:32 ) God then appeared to Abram and told him to leave his country and his father's house for a land that He would show him, promising to make of him a great nation, bless him, make his name great, bless those who blessed him, and curse those who cursed him. ( Genesis 12:1-3 ) Following God's command, at age 75, Abram took his wife Sarai, his nephew Lot, and the wealth and persons that they had acquired, and traveled to Shechem in Canaan.
