Two metres | length=2

Alternatively length=2 m could be used. But this is far less common.

0.6 miles | length=0.6 mi

Please note the dot as decimal separator! |
16 feet and 3 inches | length=16'3"

Use a typewriter apostrophe character after the feet value and a typewriter double-quote character after the inches value. Spaces are not permitted. |
