Whatever the pool is measured in.

It's standard with swimming workouts to treat the number as either yards or meters because pools can be in either and meters and yards are close enough to not really matter for training purposes.

For instance, in a 25 yard or 25 meter pool, "200" will mean 4 laps. The reason workouts aren't specified in laps is because some pools are 50 yards or 50 meters so 200 will mean 2 laps.
