Eh... Haven't seen anyone using 3kk to abbreviate 3M. 3M is common and B for billion. Those are also used in many games to shorten currencies.

This seems to be a (IRL) cultural thing - the vast majority of people I play EVE with use k/m/b/t, but a small percent does use k/kk/kkk

Afaik it came from the first Korean MMOs, like Lineage. Maybe even earlier, but I saw such format there first.
