An entry on Line 71, Schedule 5, of the 1040 form means that you made a payment when you requested an extension.
The value comes from the extension form 4868.

To check the entry, please follow these steps:
  1. On the Deductions and Credits screen, scroll to the Estimates and Other Taxes Paid section.
  2. Click the Start/Update box next to Other Income Taxes.
  3. On the Other Income Taxes screen, click on the box next to Payment with 2018 federal extension.
  4. The amount is entered on the next screen, How much of your 2018 federal taxes did you pay when you filed your tax extension?
