Small "m" when combined with a dollar figure and certain other metrics in a specific time period such as the figure "$20m" refers to thousands especially in advertsising parlance. Capital M in the same circumstances refers to millions. We also say $20k in informal American English as well as 20g's for thousands, but that's another story.
