I could give the second parameter to the t3lib_div::formatSize() function.
This parameter contains the langlabels 'B|KB|MB|GB'

return $this->counter . ' ' . $fileLabel . ', ' .
t3lib_div::formatSize($this->totalbytes,
$GLOBALS['LANG']->getLL('byteSize', true));

But in other thread (#8590) Masi said:

But this is the logical unit. If you have a file with 2 B, why you should 
have suddenly a empty file with 0 KB? Thats makes no sense.

And if we just told about: kB was the right Unit for Kilobyte. But after a
look at my Desktop, i think KB is usual for Kilobyte.
