The help for axis() talks about it some, and provides the suggestion to see ?pretty - since you're not looking for a regular sequence of numbers, you may need to dig into the code itself. Or something in ?axis may offer the clue you need.
But surely it's more appropriate to use the correct number of significant figures for those data than it is to simply make them match the axis labels?
