I was in pattern just turning a close in base when an airplane reported on final. I thought they reported 6 miles out giving me plenty of time to land first. When on final their ADS-B target was very close behind me and 100 feet below so I elected to make a low approach.  That alleviated any conflict. I believe I misheard other airplanes distance out. They were much closer as it turned out.
Pilot reported a NMAC.  Reporter thought the aircraft was further away from their aircraft but misunderstood.
