What does "12x max" mean?

Top shows more than the heap size, which is what you are setting when
you use the -Xm settings.

Looks like it. Try this:

$ ps aux | grep catalina

This should show you the complete command-line for launching Tomcat,
including all JVM settings provided on the command-line. For instance,
mine looks like this:

cschultz 11436  0.0  1.1 244100 83280 pts/3    Sl   Feb01  16:58
/usr/bin/java -Dnop -Xmx64M
- -Djava.util.logging.manager=org.apache.juli.ClassLoaderLogManager
- -Dorg.apache.catalina.STRICT_SERVLET_COMPLIANCE=true
-
-Djava.endorsed.dirs=/home/cschultz/projects/apache-tomcat-7.0.x/trunk/output/build/endorsed
- -classpath
/home/cschultz/projects/apache-tomcat-7.0.x/trunk/output/build/bin/bootstrap.jar:/home/cschultz/projects/apache-tomcat-7.0.x/trunk/output/build/bin/tomcat-juli.jar
- -Dcatalina.base=/home/cschultz/.webapps/multipart/8275

-Dcatalina.home=/home/cschultz/projects/apache-tomcat-7.0.x/trunk/output/build
- -Djava.io.tmpdir=/home/cschultz/.webapps/multipart/8275/temp
org.apache.catalina.startup.Bootstrap start

You can see that I have specified "-Xmx64M" somewhere in my
configuration. Check to see if your command-line has that type of
configuration in there. If it's not there, then you have not configured
Tomcat as you think you have.

Are you using Debian's Tomcat 6 package, or are you running one
downloaded directly from the Apache web site? If you are using Debian's
package, there are a lot of config files and scripts that run that might
be either overriding your settings, or you may not be editing the right
file.
