It won't always match because the etc. in the line description (Wages, salaries, tips, etc.) refers to over a dozen items that might not be on your W-2, including unreported disability or sick pay, scholarship or fellowship income, taxable tips, dependent care or adoption benefits, and excess moving reimbursements just to name a few.
The Sch1654 means you have scholarship income added to your W-2 income. Scholarship money is taxable if used for these education expenses:
- Room and board
- Travel
- Any other expense not required for enrollment
