I was just looking at siren durations and the Comfigurator description says it is in seconds but the help description (in the little yellow box) mentions a resolution of 0.05 seconds (50ms).  Does this mean I just set a decimal number if I wanted a really brief siren sound, e.g. \"0.5\" for a half second?

Yes, comfigurator will convert to the correct units of 50 ms

Ahh, ok, that makes sense.

I guess that explains why one of the other siren types is 3276 seconds... 3276 x 20 = 65520 i.e. the largest multiple of 50ms that will fit into an unsigned 16 bit number.
