No, this was not prophetic as in the far future---this was a here and now happening.
What scripture teaches this difference?

How is it not prophesy to prophesy about something in the future?

Whether its 7 days or 7000 years?

Show me the scripture that teaches this difference.

And I noticed you didn't address 2 Peter 3:8... would you care to?

Read your bible!!! Rev. is full of this and so is Daniel. Both books need to be taken together. And it is used is many places throughout the bible. In Ezekiel also.
Eze 4:4 Lie thou also upon thy left side, and lay the iniquity of the house of Israel upon it: according to the number of the days that thou shalt lie upon it thou shalt bear their iniquity.
Eze 4:5 For I have laid upon thee the years of their iniquity, according to the number of the days, three hundred and ninety days: so shalt thou bear the iniquity of the house of Israel.

It's based on the context of the passage.

er 4:23 I beheld the earth, and, lo, it was without form, and void; and the heavens, and they had no light.
Jer 4:24 I beheld the mountains, and, lo, they trembled, and all the hills moved lightly.
Jer 4:25 I beheld, and, lo, there was no man, and all the birds of the heavens were fled.
Jer 4:26 I beheld, and, lo, the fruitful place was a wilderness, and all the cities thereof were broken down at the presence of the LORD, and by his fierce anger.
Jer 4:27 For thus hath the LORD said, The whole land shall be desolate; yet will I not make a full end.
Jer 4:28 For this shall the earth mourn, and the heavens above be black: because I have spoken it, I have purposed it, and will not repent, neither will I turn back from it.

Jeremiah was prophesying Jerusalem's destruction that would occur by invaders from the north.

Jeremiah warns that Yahweh will bring disaster on Judah because the people rebelled against Yahweh by worshipping other gods, by pursuing policies hostile to Babylon, whose dominion Yahweh had ordained, and by allowing widespread social injustice (Jer 22:8-9).

Jeremiah’s condemnatory prophecies and his pro-Babylonian stance earn him many enemies.

Some ridicule him and others even plot against his life (in his own hometown of Anathoth, no less; Jer 11:18-23). Jeremiah is beaten and imprisoned and his writings are destroyed (Jer 20:1-6, Jer 36:20-26, Jer 37:11-16). He narrowly escapes death at the hands of a mob of religious officials and other prophets (Jer 26).

Jeremiah’s perilous career places him in the company of several other biblical prophets (Jer 26:20-23), and his willingness to prophesy despite antagonism is poignantly highlighted in several passages, sometimes called the Confessions of Jeremiah, in which he laments his persecution, often in the style of the Psalms.

Jeremiah the Prophet

Well that's a load of hoey! Daniel most certainly was and he was given prophecies by God and Gabriel. What a thing to say! Daniel is not misunderstood---it explains itself!

First , there was NO Daniel. The writing is apocraphal not prophetic.

He was writing about Antiochus IV Epiphanes in 167 BC and the Maccabean Revolt.

You have been taught wrongly.

Mat_24:15 When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:)

Who told you Daniel was not a prophet??
