milhão de serras circulares


Explanation:
Sem contexto é a solução evidente. Por outro lado, mil é uma unidade de comprimento igual a 0,001 de polegada, portanto million circular mils.
mill também é uma unidade monetaria usada para cálculo de impostos igual a US$0.001.

converter a medida em mm2


Explanation:
Complementando minha resposta, dê uma avaliada se você precisa converter isto em mm quadrados, que é o que a gente usa no Brasil. Se precisar, vá ao site convert-it.com, e depois coloque a área em mm2 dentro de um parênteses, depois do texto. Se for um glossário explicando o que é a unidade circular mils, esquece a conversão.
