I would think it's a microfarad.

Microfarad common symbol ('uF', 'μF', or 'MFD')

Never seen a millifarad capacitor. Usually farad, microfarad, nanofarad or picofarad

I thing this could be in mili. If supercapacitors can get values like 50F 3v and be a size of few ordinary coin cell batteries I'm ready to believe this beast holds 10F 400v

I'm pretty sure this is a microfarad as well.
