I would suppose the "anchor point" would be the point where the turbine is firmly mounted to its base. The steam inlet, or steam chest, of a turbine is bolted to its foundation firmly, but the exhaust end of the turbine is mounted on sliding feet which allows it room to expand as it heats up. Often multiple casing turbines will have anchor points, or solid mountings for each casing section, and flexible couplings between each shaft section.
