Per second.

In answer to your Q above, the speed of light is 186,000 miles/sec.

I question the findings based on the fact that any two points on the earth can be connected by a straight line. It seems that the research is trying to hang its hat on two siesmic events, happening seconds apart in two different parts of the world. Based on two events, it could be as much coinsidence as an actual discovery.

"1 million miles per hour. What's the speed of light? 186,000 miles per hour or miles per second?"

186,000mi/sec x 3,600sec/hr = 669,600,000mi/hr

That's six hundred and sixty-nine million six hundred thousand miles per hour. About the distance it takes a signal to travel from earth to Jupiter (one light hour).
