Is it ok to refer to a "router" as a Layer 3 switch ?

cisco 6500 was referred to as a Layer 3 switch. 

question: does it(6500) have routing capabilities ? 
-----------------------------------------------------

to connect to different vlans one needs a router.
right ?? (as shown below)
 switchA --------ROUTER-------switchB

but say some nodes connected to switchB are on the
vlan of switchA. so now to connect switchA and switchB
can router be ok ?
