There is no one "correct" answer.
The international nautical mile equals about 1.1508 statute miles.
One light year is approximately 5.880 trillion miles.
The "milha" is the traditional Portuguese mile, one of the "longest miles" of all at 2282.75 yards (1.297 statute miles or 2087.3 meters).
The league was most often equal to 3 nautical miles
So you see there are a lot of measurments longer than a mile.

a mile is the largest measure of length other that a light year (the distance light travels in a year).
