Normally, MRTG keeps <number> per second, such as <bytes> per second.
With kMG, you can change this.  Effectively you are telling MRTG the
numbers are 1000 times as large (as an example).

The OP needs the opposite.  He wants to log megabytes and needs to
convert the input into megabytes.  Dividing by 1,000,000 will do
the trick.

kMG is not used in that case.  He will be logging <megabytes> per second.
