In electronics, a "mil" is 1/1000th of an inch.
This is a common marking on gold-plated items that indicates the item is plated with a layer of 100 mills of pure gold. However, the actual amount of gold in the item is only a minimal fraction of that, often just a few microns thick. It is not considered a meaningful measurement of gold content and is primarily used for decorative or promotional purposes.

100 mills is equivalent to 0.1 inches, as one mill is equal to one-thousandth of an inch. Therefore, to convert mills to inches, you divide the number of mills by 1000. So, 100 mills divided by 1000 equals 0.1 inches.
Those '100 mills .999 silver' are usually copper bars coated with a thin silver layer. Strictly speaking the description is correct, it specifies that this plating is pure silver and that it's 100 mills thick. So it's not a solid silver bar. They are just art items, novelty stuff that cost maybe $1 total to produce. The coating is so thin the actual amount of silver is maybe one gram.
