It means the number of times you repeat the phase. Notice the two stacked asterisks (*'s) under numbers. Those are the tab analog to two dots in standard notation.
So, repeat the parts with two stacked asterisks on either side x number or times, 5 for the first bar and 4 for the second.
Ahh! Great. Thank you. Best answer selected.
