There is a figure in this field and I am having a hard time trying to figure out how it was calculated.

Its based on an IRS tax table. You can see the tables at the end of the Schedule A instructions (see link below - pages A-13 through A-16). Its based on your family size, income, and state that you lived in during the year.
