configured in millimeters and that means your scene units are also in
millimeters. Typically we assume that the tracking is in meters and so is
also the assumption in the document. You could either apply a transform on
the tracker (scale) or on the scene.

You can apply a tracker transform on the <VRPNConnection> tag
  <Tracker id="0" name="something">
<TrackerTransform value=" 1 0 0 0
                                                0 1 0 0
                                                0 0 1 0
                                                0 0 0 1">
