According to Will Smith it is a reference to the William Shakespeare play "The Merchant of Venice" in which one of the characters is required to give a pound of his own flesh to repay a debt.

Ben Thomas, the lead character in the movie "Seven Pounds" negligently caused the death of seven people and is trying to repay this debt by rescuing seven people; giving up his own life and wealth in the process.

One "pound" for each person.
