Also believe the 3/23 M marking to be 3 mm in 23mm.

When expressed as X/X the units don't matter on a taper; inches or mm it will be the same taper.  I am wondering if that is the taper though; 7/24 is the machining industry standard self releasing taper.  A 3/23 taper would be in the self locking category.  23 is a really weird base number though.

The 3/23 was just a guess on my part. It comes out rather close to the inch calculations being 3mm is just under 1/8 and 23 is under an inch.
