I'm sure the artist intended to be smart and use metric time as something silly.
The problem is he used regular time.
60 * 60 * 24=86400=>86.4 kseconds where k stands for 1000. Like kilo for 1000 grams. Kilometer for 1000 meters etc.
The comic doesn't make sense...
That ... Is metric time. The si unit for time is seconds. So ...
There's loads of comments mentioning this site https://metric-time.com/
Thats brukt beyond kiloseconds and into something else entirely
A proposed better calendar that would have made as much sense as converting to the metric system
EDIT: turns out that the idea is not so new ... it was called the "International Fixed Calendar" and it was first proposed in 1902
