As tirwhan says, 86_400 is the same as 86400. Perl allows '_' in numbers, and it can appear anywhere in the number. Perl strips out the '_' characters in a number before using it. It is purely cosmetic for ease of reading.
Copy and paste the above line for an instant demonstration. (If you're on Windows, you may need to change the quoting slightly)
