In theory you could put any of the prefixes like "mega", "giga" etc. in front of "metre", and they would be valid units. A megametre would be bigger than a kilometre. But no-one normally uses megametre as a unit.

Yes, the next larger metric measurement after a kilometer is a megameter, which is equivalent to one million meters.

Yes, I found three: a centner = 100 kilograms

A metric ton, or tonne, equals 1000 kilograms.

A kiloton, or kilotonne, equals 1000 kilotons, or 1 million kilograms.

Yes.

A megametre (106 metres), gigametre (109 metres) etc;

An Astronomical Unit (AU) = 149 597 871 km

A light year = 9.4607 *1012 km

A parsec = 3.08568 * 1013 km
