Generated scale

[James Net]

I'm viewing a satellite map of a large area and my mapserver generated scale 
seems a little wrong. Viewing a whole state (of Australia) mapserver 
generates a scale ranging from 0 --->  0.001km (see attached). And when I 
zoom-in the scale bar goes to 0 ---> 0. Any ideas? I thought my scale should 
be like 1 ---> 1000km. Am I not reading it right? Am I missing or have I 
stuffed up a map file config option / setting?

My Map file:

MAP
   NAME        WEX
   IMAGETYPE   jpeg
   EXTENT      140 -41 150 -33
   SIZE        600 600
   DEBUG       ON
   TRANSPARENT ON
   IMAGECOLOR  239 242 248 # The background Color.

      END
      MAXSCALE 50.0

      END
      STYLE 1

      COLOR 255 255 255
      UNITS kilometers
      INTERVALS   1
      TRANSPARENT TRUE
      STATUS      ON
   END

...
LAYER stuff
...
END # EOF


Thanks in advance!
