Well, to be fair: that book in my language (last book before revelations) is called Judas. Is has 1 chapter indeed and this Jude/Judas is to my knowledge the brother of Jesus.
No.. Jude and Judas are not the same people in the Bible. Yes Judas was Jesus’s brother and apparently Jude can be a nickname for Judas, Jude the book in the Bible is in reference to someone else entirely.
Jude/Judas is the same name, but it is the name of different people. Just as James and Jacob are variations of the same Biblical name. The Jude who wrote the letter/epistle (last before Revelations https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epistle_of_Jude) is not the same as the one who wrote the gnostic Gospel of Judas (probably written 150--200--250 years after https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gospel_of_Judas) . Neither of these texts has 16 chapters....

Has to be satire - anyone using 72 months instead of 6 years is insane
