Let kk be a positive real number and let A=[2k−12k2k2k1−2k−2k2k−1],B=[02k−1k1−2k02k−k−2k0].A=\begin{bmatrix}2k-1&2\sqrt{k}&2\sqrt{k}\\2\sqrt{k}&1&-2k\\-2\sqrt{k}&2k&-1\end{bmatrix},\qquad B=\begin{bmatrix}0&2k-1&\sqrt{k}\\1-2k&0&2\sqrt{k}\\-\sqrt{k}&-2\sqrt{k}&0\end{bmatrix}. If det⁡(adj⁡A)+det⁡(adj⁡B)=106\det(\operatorname{adj} A)+\det(\operatorname{adj} B)=10^6, find [k][k], where adj⁡M\operatorname{adj} M denotes the adjugate of a square matrix MM and [k][k] is the greatest integer less than or equal to kk.
