They are incompatible units. Mils are used for angular measurement not linear measure.

A mil is a thousandth of an inch. 3 inches is therefore equivalent to 3000 mils.
.0005 of an inch is equivalent to 0.0005 inches, which is also known as five ten-thousandths of an inch. This measurement is quite small, often used in precision engineering and manufacturing contexts. To put it in perspective, it is 0.5 mils, as there are 1,000 mils in an inch.
64 mils are thicker. One mil equals 1/1000 inch, or 0.001 inches. 49 mils is 49/1000 = 0.049 inches. 64 mils is 64/1000 = 0.064 inches. Since 64 is larger than 49, an object 64 mils thick is thicker than an object 49 mils thick.
It is 50/254 which can be simplified to 25/127.
A mil is 1/1000 inch; therefore, 10 mils = 1/100 inch.
