“Seventeen hundred” = 1700, so “Seventeen hundred thousand” = 1700000.

I’ve never heard of the German. The construction is available in English, but I would also consider rather unusual.

In German, there is not this number word.

You can of course search for analogies:

100 thousand: 100,000 (hundred times a thousand)

two hundred thousand: 200,000 (two hundred times a thousand)

three hundred thousand: 300,000 (three hundred times a thousand)

etc.

seventeen hundred thousand: 1,700.000 (seventeen hundred times a thousand). That would be a million seven hundred thousand.
