Corrected entry: The criminals are carrying ten million dollars on the bullet train. They have placed the case in a luggage rack from where it is taken. The case is about the size of a normal aluminium attaché case. The largest denomination US bill in circulation is the $100 bill. It weighs approximately one gram. Ten million dollars would be 100,000 grams, or just over 220 pounds of $100 bills. Way too much to even fit in the case, and much less weigh as little as the actors make it to be, moving it around the way they do. Gold would be even heavier.

Trivia: Minor Spoilers: It is revealed at the end that Ladybug's handler is played by Sandra Bullock in a cameo. (Her voice is heard throughout the film, but she doesn't appear onscreen until the final scene.) Originally, the role was meant to be played by Lady Gaga in a cameo. However, scheduling conflicts with "House of Gucci" made this impossible.

Correction: This would be a factual error if we knew that the case only contained notes and gold. But we don't. We only see notes and gold but that doesn't mean that's all there is. Underneath them could be more valuable but lighter things (gems, bonds, drugs, etc). It doesn't really matter what. We know the contents are worth $10m because that's what we're told. How that value is realised isn't explained.
Good point. I see that now. Thank you.
