What does 1 gram per cubic millimeter represent?

It is a unit of mass density representing one gram of mass contained in one cubic millimeter of volume.

How is decigram per liter defined?

Decigram per liter is a mass concentration unit equal to 0.1 grams per liter or 100 mg per liter.

Why is the conversion factor so large between these units?

Because cubic millimeters are much smaller than liters, converting mass density with volume units requires a significant scaling factor.
