could that be the width of the jaws in millimetres?

I went to look at these. I should have asked about sizes because they were all 6" and larger. And they were all pretty beat up. They had some drill chuck and lathe chuck keys there, but they wanted $20 ("I could do $15", the guy said) so I passed. I can get a new drill chuck key for about $6 and lathe chuck keys are about $10-$17 (more at some sites).
I have a 5" vise on the mill now and it's about as big as will fit. I have a rotary table from my smaller mill that I just sold I might be able to use.
