8-9 digits latitude/longitude format

i have a database of latitude and longitude GPS coordinates in this format:

Latidude                        Longitude

20908403.7226004675030708 223749828.7524890005588531

20908403.7325199767947197 223749828.7432585060596466

20908403.2405762746930122 223749828.7983648478984833

I tried to do a 1/10^6 rescaling and the trajectory i obtained is the expected one, but i'm struggling too understand the format of the coordinates and their physical meaning.

In my opinion those cannot be:

and i'm out of options.

Thank you in advance for your help, greetings.

Alessandro

Update:

The format was a "proprietary" one by the company we were working for.

Probably, this format is to "increase" the accuracy with more decimal digits. But, it is important to know the following: be careful with the number of digits
