Before that (and to a large extent still, even in content made for more recent versions of Poser) the common systems were 1 Poser unit = 8 feet (96") and 1 Poser unit = 100 inches. DAZ worked to the 1PNU=8' scale, by which V4 is still tall at 5'10" or so but not as extreme as 6'2".

You're saying she was only 5'10" in Poser 5 and earlier? That isn't much comfort! Since I don't use Poser 5, I need Michael to be about 7 feet tall to make Vicky look the right size standing next to him.

I guess it doesn't matter so much if EVERYTHING is scaled for a 6'2" Vicky. But why make the scale so out of whack to begin with? Just fix the damn measuring system if that is the problem.

No, up to Poser 5 or 6 there was no official scale for Poser so people guessed - using 8 feet or 100 inches both gave nice round figures, and of the two I think 8 feet was most widely adopted (including by DAZ - and it is the conversion DAZ Studio uses, and I believe the one 3DS uses if you export for Poser). Poser 5 or 6 introduced the formal statement that 1 PNU is 8.6 feet, making anything modelled to either of the generally used scales over large (and anything eyeballed against Victoria or Mike even larger, given that they were taller than average figures even on the 8-feet scale) - there was much negative comment at the time on the way the number appeared to have been plucked out of thin air, though people have found grounds for thinking it may have been implicit from an early stage (and certainly the older Poser figures are shorter than their more recent descendants, as would be expected if that were the case).
