Hmmm ... 16,609.344m = 10 miles does it not??

Not only did it lose something in translation, it lost something in units,

Give some people an inch and they will take a mile grin NOT 10
miles!!!!!!!!!!!

No, it is not. The mistake is the repeated 6, it should have been
1,609.344m.

Apologies... Owen
