After going down a metrology rabbit hole I think I am quite sure that there are many metric systems, one of them being the SI, but all of them share the units that were listed in the article. Where they vary is in the "size" of the unprefixed derived units (e.g. dyne vs newton or erg vs joule) and especially in the definition of electrical units.
