My CPU is too fast and I have trouble counting the zeros in sysctl hw.sensors.

For a frequency sensor greater than 10 MHz, display in Mhz instead.
Keep the old format when using -n, in case somebody scripted this.

hw.sensors.cpu0.frequency0=650.00 MHz
hw.sensors.cpu2.frequency0=700.00 MHz
hw.sensors.cpu4.frequency0=650.00 MHz
