It sounds like you claimed the Recovery Rebate Credit and the IRS says that you already received it as a direct payment.
Based on what you are showing they say you owe $2740.50. "Tax you owe $5836" is the total tax liability for the year. That should match line 24 of your 2021 1040.
They acknowledge payments of $3739.00 (tax withheld and credits) already made. This reduces what you owe.
