Riddle Explanation

The answer to the riddle is the letter "M".
The letter "M" appears once in a minute, as there is one "M" in the word "minute".
The letter "M" appears twice in a moment, as there are two "M"s in the word "moment".
However, there is no "M" in the year "1000", which is often referred to as a thousand years.
