Which does make sense because, 72 units ( player tall in units ) x 0.0254 = 1.82 meters (human average tall length)

If that is true then that means that the base unit for length in the game is inches.

No. If you divide acceleration by acceleration you get no units at all, you get a simple ratio (when you properly process the units of the input values; when you're dividing by earth gravity, you get what is considered the "g-force"). The 800 doesn't have units of "units/s^2".
If you assume that sv_gravity of 800 is normal earth gravity of 9.81 m/s^2 then the units for sv_gravity are (9.81 m/s^2)/800 which is 0.0122625 m/s^2 which is also 0.483 in/s^2 (also known as the conversion factor for sv_gravity to get real-world units).

Well, from some of your posts, it seemed like that was what you assumed.
