Yeah, Roman numeral "M" is a 40+ year practice that sales people used at the
wholesale and manufacturing levels as kind of a shorthand for 1000.  As they
have migrated to computers this has mostly gone away because the quantity
fields only supported "ea" items standing for "each".

In which country? I've never seen M used as a thousand. Only k (Lower case).
