It means that there are actually 4 cells in the battery pack. There are two pairs in parallel (3.7v 2650mah x 2)increasing there mah to 5300. Then those two pairs are wired in series to raise to the voltage to 7.4v 5300 mah. Most of the time I have seen this done to try and save on space, or to give you a higher C rating.
