manpage of `dd`: multiplicative suffixes ambiguous

Hi,

looking in the man page of `dd` for multiplicative suffixes I understand that 
e.g. "K =1024". What I don't understand is the specification:

xM =M GB  =1000*1000*1000

between two commas. Is there a comma missing, or is the "xM =M" there by 
accident? It even reads this way in coreutils 8.25.
