Why is it necessary to include units when measuring and dimensioning?

Because the measurement is relative to the unit. For example:

A measurement is six. But could be 6 inches, 6 yards, 6 nm, 6 feet, six as a quantity, six packages, six items, etc.

So until you specify the unit, that number means nothing.
