It depends on what you what to do: if your purpose is only display you can use the solution proposed by samuel into a dedicated  display function

for example, suppose you have a 3 column matrix X where the last one is time
you can write the function as follow:
function mydist(X)
  [A, M, J, h, mn, s] = datevec(X(:,3)/1000/24/3600);
  out = msprintf("%02d:%02d:%04.1f\n",h, mn ,s)
  mprintf("%.3g %.3g %s\",X(:,1),X(:,2),out)
endfunction

If you want to create an array with a string column formatted  as you want, you may use a tlist

[A, M, J, h, mn, s] = datevec(X(:,3)/1000/24/3600);
out = msprintf("%02d:%02d:%04.1f\n",h, mn ,s)
T=tlist(["foo","data","time"],X(:,1:2),out)

I hope it will help.
