Ah, no! A unit (either about 1,000 strong or commanded by a chiliarchos) would be called a chiliarchia.
By the way, i is my opinion that Zosimus' tagmata are most probably legions. He seems pretty consistent in the use of the term, although he DOES use the term in a different way like in 4.55.2, where he mentions cavalry tagmata.
