If you check out Alan Green's jewtube channel Bard Code you will discover that the ancients knew about not just the cubit but also the foot and meter. Unfortunately I'm unable to point to a precise video that is about this. There was something that shows that the dimensions of the sarcophagus in relation to the chamber it was found in encode both the foot and the meter.
Well, I found a further connection. 33 meters is 108.3 feet. Rounded that corresponds to 108. Both 33 and 108 are revered numbers in occult and religious circles. The former is of course the number of degrees (officially) in freemasonry. The latter is a sacred number in Hinduism and as such, interest in it developed in western esotericism, including for purposes of numerology. I don't know when an interest in 108 entered the western world, but if it had co-existed with an interest in 33 for a long time, it could independently point to ancient knowledge of both the meter and the foot, and how they relate to each other.
An adjacent fact is that the ratio between [distance moon-earth] to [diameter of moon] = 108, and that the same is true for [distance sun-earth] to [diameter of sun]. Visualized here.
What do you think? Is this a coincidence or was this relation known in esoteric circles?
