   Another strange coincidence:   
      
   Pi * 2 Miles = 10.1118 Kilometers,   
   Almost a perfectly rounded decimal that may as well be a unit of   
   measurement.   
      
   As for 180,000 miles being near 1 light second and also the half the   
   circumference of a circle. A triangle's angles always add up to   
   180 degrees as well. But to be fair science rounds up not down, so   
   the speed of light rounded up is better said to be 186,282 miles per   
   second.
