Maybe he is thinking of how many beers one can drink per kilometer of driving so then 
he makes a small conversion to mg/mm
It's called politician's math.

Subject: [USMA:12218] A letter from my delegate to the state assembly


My local representative to the Maryland House of Delegates sent out a 
constituent newsletter the other day.  Here is the first sentence of one 
paragraph.   It is shown here exactly as written.  I am not making this up.

"Drunk driving legislation - The General Assembly passed a measure that will 
reduce the blood alcohol concentration level needed to determine a violation 
of driving under the influence from 0.1 grams to 0.08 grams of alcohol per 
100 millimeters of blood."

Still a ways to go.
