What does the number (1.004 DOTs) may indicate in Polkadot?

Maybe you posted the wrong address - I do not see any recent transfers of 1.004 DOT from this address. Subscan | AssetHub Polkadot Account Details

However, the existential deposit - the amount of DOT in an account necessary for it to exist - on Polkadot Relay Chain is 1 DOT (0.01 DOT on the Asset Hub parachain, where the majority of DOT are located today) (see Polkadot Support ) . Sending 1.004 DOT to a new address would give enough DOT for an account to exist plus a little for tx fees, so that would be my guess absent further information.
