Imperial Miles or Nautical Miles?

The difference between the two is 26537 yards - so this could be very important
The difference between getting a mission success or a mission failure

Uhm... your numbers are off. Way off. A statue mile is 5280 feet (1760 yds) and a nautical mile is 5802 feet (1934 yds). Certainly not a difference of 26.5 Kyds.

That said, my answer doesn't change - if everyone uses knots and Nm at sea, then the game uses the same system.
