In SI measurements, a whole has no prefix.
Getting smaller progressively from the whole, the prefixes go: deci-, centi-, milli-, micro-, nano-, pico-.
Getting progressively bigger from the whole, the prefixes go: deca-, hecto-, kilo-, mega-, giga-, tera-.
So gram comes first as it is the unit. The others are just multiples of this unit to make the numbers easier.
