The 10 probably refers to the throat which is the distance from the blade to the verticle frame at one side of the saw. This distance limits the size of work that can be cut. A 10" throat would indicate a fairly small saw suitable for home and hobby use.
The 10 might also refer to the depth of cut which is the distance from the table top to the upper blade guide. This distance limits the thickness of work that can be cut.
