Kpk. 10 is not a postal code but the name of the post office itself, Kenttäpostikonttori 10 ("Field Post Office 10", sometimes also 10. Kenttäpostikonttori). It operated at Kuhmo during the Winter War and at Mikkeli during the Continuation War. A proper postal address would be consisted of the unit code (e.g. 1234, "peiteluku") and the post office operating in that region (e.g. Kpk 1).
