They show the distribution of the metrics. For example, in your data the write latency for 95% of the requests were 24.60 microseconds or less. 95% of the partitions are 642 bytes or less with 2 cells. The SStables column is how many sstables are touched on a read, so 95% or read requests are looking at 35 sstables (this is fairly high).
