OK so when you say "hacked into Gmail" you actually mean someone breached the infra of email. Not that they did some credential stuffing / password reset attack & got into one person's Gmail account?
Usually the most advanced attacks are a few chained zero days or a zero day on top of a configuration /patching error. The worst attacks are when a zero day for wordpress or outlook comes out.
That's generally how actual APT attacks go, yes.
