What does gram/cubic millimeter measure?

Gram per cubic millimeter measures how much mass is contained within a very small volume, useful for micro-scale density values.

Where is pound/cubic yard commonly used?

Pound per cubic yard is often used in construction and civil engineering to express bulk material densities for concrete, soil, and aggregates.

Why is the conversion factor so large?

Because gram per cubic millimeter measures density at a microscopic scale, converting to a larger volume unit like cubic yards results in a very large multiplication factor.
