TNT equivalent is a convention for expressing energy, typically used to describe the energy released in an explosion.The ton of TNT is a unit of energy defined by convention to be 4.184 gigajoules (1 gigacalorie), [1] which is the approximate energy released in the detonation of a metric ton (1,000 kilograms) of TNT.

Most powerful US weapons ever: 25 megatonnes of TNT (100 PJ); the Mk-17 was also the largest by area square footage and mass cubic footage: about 20 short tons (18,000 kg). The Mk-41 or B41 had a mass of 4800 kg and yield of 25 Mt; this equates to being the highest yield-to-weight weapon ever produced.
A ton of TNT or tonne of TNT is a unit of energy equal to 10 9 (thermochemical) calories, also known as a gigacalorie (Gcal), equal to 4.184 gigajoules (GJ). A kiloton of TNT or kilotonne of TNT is a unit of energy equal to 10 12 calories, also known as a teracalorie (Tcal), equal to 4.184 terajoules (TJ).
This is a compilation of published detonation velocities for various high explosive compounds. Detonation velocity is the speed with which the detonation shock wave travels through the explosive.

This Wikipedia page provides a list of units of energy used in the template for converting measurements.
For example, the NIST document has 1 square mile = 2.589 988 E+06 square meters. The convert template has 1 square mile = 2,589,988.110336 square meters. Values for the fundamental physical constants come from the NIST Reference on Constants, Units, and Uncertainty , either the 2010 or the 2014 version.
