Don't know. Maybe.

If that's the case, though, why are gas suppliers assuming that their
meters are reading in hcf and not cubic metres?

Unless, of course, they'd like to get 20 years' profit out of a
customer in one year, even if they eventually lose the customer to
another supplier. They'd like to say it was an 'honest mistake', where
in reality it is incompetence/criminal fraud/weights and measures
contravention.
