Scale Switching from metric to imperial

I am working on some details in a project in which we are using metric scales (1:100,1:200, etc). For these details, i have them set at 1:2 scale. For some reason whenever I place the drawings on the sheet, instead of displaying the scale as 1:2, they display as 6" = 1'-0" (which is the same scale I know, but it is inconsistent with our other sheets). I have checked all of my project units and they are set correctly. It appears that it does this on any scale larger than 1:5. I tried switching it to 1:1 to see what happens and it displayed as 1'-0" = 1'-0" even though none of our units are in feet. Any ideas?

In AC's preferences change the units for Layout, they can be different.
