A mechanical tach will register 1 engine hour for every 100,000 revolutions. At 1666.6 rpm it will register 1 hour for every hour run. At 800 rpm it will take two hours of run time to register an hour.
In my opinion this was a more accurate method of measuring engine wear but is rarely used any more.
10 hours on the tach means your piston went up and down 1 million times.

Work is the exertion of force overcoming resistance or producing molecular change. Joule is the SI unit of work or energy, equal to the work done by a force of one newton when its point of application moves one meter in the direction of action of the force, equivalent to one 3600th of a watt-hour. Joules measure work.
