What measurements are MFP using for macros?

I was scolding myself for not reaching my iron levels recently, but I noticed that MFP is saying I have to get 100 "units" of iron each day, whereas the RDI of iron for an 18yo female is about 15mg/day.
I would assume that they are using a percentage scale (or, at least I hope so). But is there a way for us to see/change how much they are recommending?

    I believe it is a % of RDA / RDI, if you look at the custom goals page it says %DV
