Depending upon context it could mean:
- A temperature on the kelvin scale, eg 0K is absolute zero, 273.15K is the freezing point of water;
- the number is multiplied by 1000, eg 10K means 10 × 1,000 = 10,000 (this is the basis of the kilo- prefix in the metric system, written as a lower case 'k');
- an abbreviation for kilometres (especially with commentators), eg a 10K race is a 10 km race (this comes from the previous context in that 10K = 10,000 and metres is assumed to be/implicit as the length unit);
- in old computing terms it could refer to 1024 bytes, eg a Commodore Pet 3032 came with 32K RAM, meaning it had 32 × 1024 bytes = 32,768 bytes of RAM (1024 is the closest power of 2 to 1000, and the "bytes" was implicit when talking about memory sizes back then).

What K mean?
The letter"K" has several uses in today's culture. Without knowing to which context you speak of, it is hard to know which use you mean. K is the abriviation for Kilometer, and is often heard in regards to running and marathons. A number with a lower case k after it is another use for "k". This means "thousands" of a number. For instance, 2k is 2,000. The exception to the number/letter k combination is 401(k), which is a type of retirement account. Also, some people who are very lazy about writing things out will say "k" instead of "okay."
