I think FreeCAD is what they call "parametric".  This means I can do things
like making a square 3X by 2X long and the ratio will always be 3:2.   But
I can also make the box 6 by 4.   If a scale factor like "X" is used is
totally up to the person who made the part.    It is much shared to make a
parametric model than to make a fixed size model so most as fixed size.

So, if what you are looking for depends on the person who designed this and
not on FreeCAD.

My guess is your.step file is made with fixed dimension
