Digits kept in the answer. Automatic keeps six, which hides floating-point noise without losing anything real.

How the conversion works
m = mm × 0.001
Both units are defined exactly, so the precision of the mm to meters result depends only on the number of decimal places you choose.
METHOD AND SOURCES
Where the conversion factors come from
Results are calculated from the unit definitions stored in the converter, not copied from a lookup table. For exact units, every value in the table follows from the same factor shown in the formula above.
