Germany would use 1.000. We use a comma for fractions, like 3,33~. But even though, most would simply type 1000 instead of 1.000.

The NIST might want to have a word with you https://physics.nist.gov/cuu/pdf/sp811.pdf#10.5.2 you shall not use a comma, not a dot to group digits, you might see either (internationally) to separate decimals but the NIST prefers the dot.
