Klick is a common military term meaning
kilometer when referring to distance. Its use became popular among US soldiers in Vietnam during the 1960s, although veterans of the war recall its usage as early as the 1950s. The term is of unknown origin. It is likely to be an example of
condensed pronunciation or contraction of the term kilometer, although other theories exist.

kilometre or a kilometre per hour ("

'k'.
Common in Canada. In the US it's strongly associated with the military.
See k which can also be used for "kilometre" but not for "kilometre per hour".
