M, mille, roman number for thousand, this year is MMV for
          popular calendars used in many parts of the world.

M, mega, as you say 10**6 = (10**3)**2 = 1000*1000 = 1000000
But there's also M: 2**20 = (2**10)**2 = 1024*1024 = 1048576

Well, in theory I know how to decode your UTF-8, it's simple.
In practice I'm a bit lazy ;-)
