Most likely they're giving the difference in shock length between the upper and lower shock mount screws at ride height compared to fully extended. That's how I set droop on my touring car (2mm over ride height, 2.5mm over ride height, etc..)
ride height - 62mm shock
full extended - 67mm shock
result - 5mm droop
(don't pay attention to my shock lengths.. I haven't built my car yet so I just made up the numbers as an example)
