The capitalisation of SI units matters. Currently, the speedometer shows all lowercase, and the altimeter shows all uppercase. 

As seen in the attached pic, this results in confusion with the incorrect units. The speedometer in the pic is reading 168 mm/s, which reads as 168 millimeters per second, instead of 168 mega meters per second. A rather significant difference if you ask me.

The unit for meters is a lowercase m. Gm, Mm, km, m is the way it should be displayed on both the altimeter and speedometer. My physics teacher was pedantic about this, so I am too

 

Workaround: suffer as you look at the minor error

Huh...

Though this really isn't a bug and more of a minor mistake...

I never noticed that before. But another point...

How did you even GET TO 168 mega meters per second?

I mean, an interplanetary mission to, say, Moho, only puts you to about 8000-9000 m/s on a really bad day.
