Load Graph, 'm'illions?

Sorry if this has been asked before, couldn't find the answer in a quick search. Graphing Linux load average on a busy machine I see integer numbers, which is expected "20" for example, but graphing an almost idle machine (load 0.22), it's graphed as 220 m. Is there something I need to adjust?, is a RRD limitation?
Regards,

m stands for milli- as in milliload, M would be Mega.
This could be disabled via rrdgraph, --units-exponent 1, but the graphing PHP code is not for the faint of heart!

Good to know!, at least I'll get true data when load goes to 1 as 1>220 m, per your explanation, and that's all I need.
Thanks!
