Wendover did a nice video of how this data is collected.

At about https://youtu.be/V0Xx0E8cs7U?t=36 in that video, an equivalence is made between "one hundred thousand feet" and "three hundred thousand meters". I replayed it a few times to check.

Interestingly only the spoken text makes that mistake, the subtitles are correctly stating 30.000 meters.
