As far as I know, mfem does not assume or change any particular units in the simulation. The output units depend on the supplied mesh units (not specifying any units, but just interpreting a vertex (1.0, 0.5) as (1.0 m, 0.5 m)) and any constants and boundary conditions that are supplied by the user. It is all about how we interpret the numbers processed by the calculator called mfem.
I believe you must be supplying non-SI units in one of your constants or must have made any other mistake in the code.
