Number issue

When I choose "select"  and change from string to double it's changing my number from 283k to 283 and I'm not quite sure why. Reaching out to see if anyone may know of a fix to this?

I can't see any information on how this was solved. Could you please share? I have an issue where the files I'm importing have numbers as (2,000.08) and Alteryx Designer Cloud is reading it as a string. If I use the Select tool to change the format, I lose the underlying data. I have one workflow with only one column with numbers and I used ReplaceChar to solve but now I have a file with 10+ columns and can't figure out how to apply the ReplaceChar solution for multi-columns.
