Arabic term or phrase: 2م 8.800

In a table in a contract concerning the area of various plots of land, the areas are set out as above with a م� after a part of the figure. What does it stand for? In the fiqure above, the م should be after the 2.
It's a question of land measurements in Saudi Arabia. I don't think I need to provide more context as it comes from a table and there are no "sentences" as such.
Thanks, Aisha
