It's the radius. Connecting the vertices to the center you split the hexagon into 6 isosceles triangles with a 60 degree vertex angle. The other 2 angles must be 60 degrees too. It is an equilateral triangle. Two of the sides are radii measuring 125 cm, and the 3rd side is a side of the hexagon and also measures 125 cm.
