So if we follow this refutation, the heavens are inside each others. But in the hadith it say that there is 500 years between them, that doesn't make sense if the heavens are inside each others. Something is wrong..

It can be as simple as this; hypothetically, if a sphere is inside another sphere, the distance can be meant as the the distance between the inner shell to the outer shell.

But then, what's the unit 500 years meant? Time itself is relative (one Earth year is different than one Mars year, for example). Also one day in the afterlife is equivalent to 1000 years (Earth year). So which 500 years unit is used here?

Allahu A'lam.
