The cubic footage of Noah's Ark was 1.54 million. This is calculated using the dimensions provided in the Biblical account as follows. In Genesis 6 v 15 we read:

15And this is the fashion which thou shalt make it of: The length of the ark shall be three hundred cubits, the breadth of it fifty cubits, and the height of it thirty cubits. This relates to 459 by 75 by 44 feet, all based on the standard cubit of the day.
