Have a look at the doc string of org-effort-durations. 

Documentation:
Conversion factor to minutes for an effort modifier.

Each entry has the form (MODIFIER . MINUTES).

In an effort string, a number followed by MODIFIER is multiplied
by the specified number of MINUTES to obtain an effort in
minutes.

For example, if the value of this variable is (("hours" . 60)), then an
effort string "2hours" is equivalent to 120 minutes.
