That's the same reference - the problem is with the wording 'is', not 'shall' or 'must be'. The reality is that for every tool you pick that generates VRML models, the unit used is anyone's guess. On top of that, for KiCad's purposes using meters would actually be a nuisance and would unnecessarily bloat the VRML file. Many parts often have features on the order of 10 microns; using mm or even 0.1 inches shaves off a lot of zeroes (or repetitive exponents).
