What Does It Mean?

Hello Everyone
I hope this is the correct place for my question so here it goes.
Nearly two weeks ago I purchased my Kobo Arc 7, got some books for it and so far so good.
But, I noticed on the books that I have purchased on that they have what appears to be a timeline or something underneath the picture of the book. (the second screen that I scroll on to). The book that I have finished says 471 days to go, the book that I am currently reading says less than 1 hr to go and I have no idea what this all means.
I purchased the books on the angus and Robertson booksite which goes through kobo books.
I would like to get some more books but I am now uncertain whether to proceed in getting them.
Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated or If I need to provide further information I'd be happy to.
Thank you
Kimmy

If you have a question about the Kobo, the correct place for it is the Kobo forum. Moved.

I believe this is an estimate of how much longer it will take to read that book based on your current pace.

Thank you so much for that Peter. Makes a lot of sense and I appreciate the information.
