You could create a new ScaledUnit:
ScaledUnit su = new ScaledUnit(1000, oldUnit)
where oldUnit is the unit you had. If you just want the
displayed data to show that, then call
ScalarMap.setOverrideUnit(su). That will not change the
data, just the display. The labelling using 2E-6 would
probably have to be done manually.
