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/
