The reason is simple: Scribus uses points internally, despite the chosen
units.

This is also the reason that if you set something to 100 mm, it ends up not
being exactly 100 mm (because Scribus converts to points, rounding the
value, and when that is converted back to mm it may not be exactly 100 mm).
