Quick estimate in your head
For a rough answer, multiply by about 3000000: 2,000 × 3000000 ≈ 6,000,000,000 m2, against the exact 5,179,976,220.67 m2 (15.8% out). Good enough to check that a calculated result is sensible.
Common mistakes
The usual slip is using the factor the wrong way round. A square mile is bigger than a square meter, so the number of square meters must come out larger than the number of square miles. If your answer goes the other way, divide instead of multiplying.
