I use 'meter' as the length unit, so that output result is caused by my habit.
The dots are decimal points.
I want to ask a question, a number contain commas can be read as 'one' number
correct by POV-Ray?
Can 3,9432 be a number?

Currently You might need use 'scale' to the pigment to convert it to your
customary unit. I will add a list(menu) to select unit on the "Basic
Profile"(first page) in the future version. But I need time to research this.
