You are right. But the metric system is intuitive. 12 millimeters = 1 centimeter, 3 centimeter = 1 meter, 100 meter is a football pitch, and 1760 meters are a kilometer (I had to google this one because I never know. The designers really missed out at using 1776 meters in a kilometer).

Noone remembers how many yards are in a mile, you're supposed to just remember it's 5 tomatos long.

Talk shit about imperial all you want, just remember that the British made it. US was just too busy building a damn country to change units when the new one was adopted by the British and their imperial states.
