A Meter cube for meteorites? Hmm exists: http://www.conservapedia.com/images/0/06/Kaaba.jpg
Shht Captain, maths: The Bulletin database has listed 700 metric tons of meteorites. 90% of them are iron meteorites. Let's say density 8grams/ccm. Rest shall be stones. 3.4g/ccm. How large have the dimensions of a cube to be, to house all meteoritic material, if they would be a solid block? Best!

The entire scientific community uses the metric scale. 1 CM cube is the only size I have ever seen - it would seem a Meter Cube may be useful under some circumstance, but very few of the World's meteorites would warrant such.
