I think that, in order to read them more easily, it would be better to insert 
the thousand separator.
But, if it exists, this is not the error. I think that from the fifth item on 
the values are not correct.

Interesting. Apparently OpenOffice is smart enough to do the right thing, i.e.,

=CONVERT_ADD(1/(1024*1024);"Eibyte";"byte")
gives
1099511627776
which is the right result (1 Terabyte).

I tried on a 64-bit system, not sure about what happens in a 32-bit one so I won't open an issue right now. But indeed it has all to do with the difference in how numbers are managed internally and how they are displayed.

Any way, perhaps those values are used in some functions and, not
being possible to work with numbers of more than 15 digits, the
values already on the help files are the ones that must appear.

Leaving them as they are won't be tragic. But you can insert commas
as thousands separators in your translation, this is just text.
