That's extraordinarily nonsensical for something written so prominently next to the price. It doesn't even work if you assume that the continental decimal notation is being used. I'd go as far to say it might even be a criminal offence; quoting the Weights and Measures Act 1985 section 31, emphasis mine:
> Without prejudice to section 30(2) to (4) above, if in the case of any goods required by or under this Part of this Act to have associated with them a document containing particular statements, that document is found to contain any such statement which is materially incorrect, any person who, knowing or having reasonable cause to suspect that statement to be materially incorrect, inserted it or caused it to be inserted in the document, or used the document for the purposes of this Part of this Act while that statement was contained in the document, shall be guilty of an offence.
