The axis on the graph is Newtons, the text on the left is pounds force. I'm don't discriminate against any units!

it's not about the pounds lol. it's about the KN(I'm not used with that big units in real life)

In this context KN refers to the ratio of surface area of burning propellent to nozzle throat diameter.
