Firstly, it’s important to understand that thousands of is a kind of figure speech which means more than one thousand and on the other hand ten thousand of is not so effective to say that’s the reason almost everyone says ten thousand or twenty thousand and so on.
Well, ten thousand is a very good phrase for a novel or poetry but not so effective or useful metric in accounting. These two phrases are not used to designate a distinct number, except they are used for an order of magnitude.
Ten thousand of means more than ten thousand, meaning any number above 10,000 is ten thousand of, there are different names for this phrase, such as in Ancient Greek its μύριο also known as myriad in English, in Aramaic, it is ܪܒܘܬܐ (rabbā), in Hebrew רבבה (revava), in Chinese 萬/万 and many more language has a different name for it.
In the early version of the metric system, Greek roots were used, which was in the form of a decimal prefix also known as myria. In the UK and US ten thousand can be written as 10,000, whereas in European areas it’s written as 10.000, 10 000 is written in transition metric or 10•000 in this the dot is raised up to the middle of the zeros.
If you place a bar over seven numerals multiply by 1,000. If you want to write 10,000, for that take 10 which has a roman numeral X, then put a bar over it or on it which would give us X bar (x̄ a symbol which represents X bar) or 10,000.

The number thousand or 1000 is a natural number in which most English-speaking languages can write the number with a comma (1,000) and without one (1000). In European countries, it’s written with a dot (1.000).
It’s also known as a short thousand in the medieval contexts, here many people get confused by the German concept of a long thousand (1200). A period of 1,000 years can also be termed after the Greek roots a Chiliad, if someone says a chiliad of an object that means, chiliad of an object refers to 1,000 of that particular object.
The decimal distinction for one thousand is:
The SI unit for 1000 is Kilo or as it is abbreviated as K (1k), in this case, it could be km or Kilometre which means a thousand meters. Multiples of 1000, have their zeros replaced by a K for instance $400K. The currency in UK and US represent a thousand units with a Grand or as it is abbreviated as G, an example could be $3 grand.
There are different names and phrases of thousand in different Languages. In Albanian the number thousand is said to be mijë, in Czech its tisíc, in Irish it is míle, in Russian its тысяча [tysyacha], in Japanese its 千 which is almost similar to the Chinese way which is 千 [qiān] and so on there is many more language with different words.
Thousands of means that something that is in thousands could be used as a figure of speech such as “there are thousands of better things you can do than sitting wasting your precious time”.
Whereas for ten thousand of has the same meaning as thousands of has but with more the quantity such as he has ten thousand of those ten-dollar bills.
