For a topological space $X$, let $X_\delta$ be the space $X$ with $G_\delta$-topology of $X$. For an uncountable cardinal $\kappa$, we prove that the following are equivalent: (1) $\kappa$ is $\omega_1$-strongly compact. (2) For every compact Hausdorff space $X$, the Lindel\"of degree of $X_\delta$ is $\le \kappa$. (3) For every compact Hausdorff space $X$, the weak Lindel\"of degree of $X_\delta$ is $\le \kappa$. This shows that the least $\omega_1$-strongly compact cardinal is the supremum of the Lindel\"of and the weak Lindel\"of degrees of compact Hausdorff spaces with $G_\delta$-topology. We also prove the least measurable cardinal is the supremum of the extents of compact Hausdorff spaces with $G_\delta$-topology. For the square of a Lindel\"of space, using weak $G_\delta$-topology, we prove that the following are consistent: (1) the least $\omega_1$-strongly compact cardinal is the supremum of the (weak) Lindel\"of degrees of the squares of regular $T_1$ Lindel\"of spaces. (2) The least measurable cardinal is the supremum of the extents of the squares of regular $T_1$ Lindel\"of spaces.
