That just means the sculptor created it in that size.
I have some STL files and they are sized for 1/4 scale. I'll post a couple pics to show you.
You can see here I've imported the heads from 2 different models. Iron Man is designed in 1/4 scale, Batman is ~ 1/8. I could upscale the Batman model, I'm only limited by by whatever the largest piece is (in this case the base) and how big I make it relative to my print area. Alternatively, I could cut the base in half to allow more upscaling....I haven't learned that one yet, but I need to...the Iron Man base is a little too big & to make it fit I have to downscale it to about 85%...which means all the other parts have to downscale too.
Red means it's out of the printer bed range:
