Why is Maps in Mavericks in the Metric System?

It shows distance in km, how do I switch to Miles?

    This did work for me.  I had mine set up for Canada, but I road travel extensively in the US.  To do my trip planning I have set the preferences to USA.  Now my margins in Microsoft world will show in centimetres.  It would be preferable if there were a toggle with the Apple map software.

     

    Those who don't like Greg's answer should at least accept that he provided a fix.  It is a bit presumptuous to dump on Apple or the USA for a minor inconvenience.  Readers could make new friends and learn stuff here.
