If you use euro locale settings, the coordinate (and other Measurement argument) separators will be ; (semi-colon) and the decimal character will be comma instead of a period.

SketchUp User Guide: Moving Entities Around says:

6. (Optional) To move your item a precise distance, you can type either of the following during or immediately after the move:

  • Length: The number you type can be positive or negative, such as 20’ or -35mm. If you specify a unit of measurement, that unit overrides your template’s default units. For example, you can type 3’ 6" even if you are using metric system as your default.
  • Coordinates: The Measurements box accepts global or relative coordinates. To enter global coordinates, use square brackets, such as [3’, 4’, 5’]. To set relative coordinates, use angle brackets, such as <3’, 4’, 5’>.
