Comment (by Rahe):

 Hello,

 I think that unit symbols are not sensitive to plural, we say 10
 milliseconds and write 10ms, or 10 meters but write 10m.

 According to this answer [https://physics.stackexchange.com/a/384189]

 "Symbols for units are always written in roman (upright) type,
 irrespective of the type used in the rest of the text. The unit symbol
 shall remain unaltered in the plural and is not followed by a full stop
 except for normal punctuation, e.g. at the end of a sentence."
