It looks to me like map scales are inaccurate. According to my calculations 
they're off by %13.528.

Here's how to demonstrate the inaccuracy:

Open localhost/mapguide/dotnetsamples/main.aspx

Zoom to scale 1:1000

Draw a line that is one foot long using the measure tool.

The measurement of the line according to the task pane is 0.14 miles. If this 
is converted to feet that's about 7392 feet.

Since the current zoom scale is 1:1000 you would expect a foot long measure 
redline to be 1000 feet, not 7392.
