No, you don't have to do anything with that number.

 

Box 2e shows the portion of the amount in Box 1a that is section 897 gain attributable to disposition of USRPIs. 

 

The box 2e amount is included in box 1a, and that is the figure that will be used on your 1040. There's a help note there to that effect, but it could be clearer.
