You're talking to an American. They use anything but a logical system. To explain to them what a kilometer is, you need to put yourself in their position and go from that. Let me help:

A kilometer is:

~167 Ford F-150's,
~1,150 dishwashers,
~5,556 bibles,
~5,263 bananas,
~1,250 AR-15's,
~0.62 miles,
~3,281 feet,
~39,370 inches,
etc.

To make sense to an American, you need to not make any sense. This includes swapping the period and comma around in numbers, but you already did that.
