    Likely it means Mark 2, or the second version released.

    I suspect that in older days when designing engines and other things the engineer would simply “mark” the part with a couple of scratches to show which was v2.

    A pro sounding and cooler way to say "Version 2". It is a well known marketing BS which just works.
    MK means Mark. II is roman numeral for 2.

    originally its an equation, almost impossible to grasp for the human brain so only computers manage, it has to do with the angle of some circuits.

    anyway so for us brutes they simply call it: Mark, Mark2 as in Line2 or Point2 or Brand2 or Version2.

    MK II is better than MK1, but it is not as good as MK III.
