There are over 30 units of length listed in Wikipedia "unit of length" - some are more common than others but most are in use. The count does not include the 20 or so SI prefices (milli, centi, kilo etc), making around 50 units in all. Each pair of measurement units will have two conversion factor: from A to B and from B to A. So just lengths will give rise to approx 50*50 (or 2500) conversion factors. Then there are measures for area, volume, mass, weight, force, work, ...
