Why does your rabbit run from us as soon as you mentioned cutting his claws surely he does not understand the conversation?

Though your rabbit doesn't understand English, he has probably learned the connection between the sounds "cutting his claws" and the action of cutting his claws. This is similar to my rabbit. When I give her pellets or hay, she knows whether I'm giving her hay or pellets because she has learned the connection between the sounds. The hay is a plastic bag crinkling, and the pellets are a can with pellets rattling around inside. Your rabbit might also know the tone of voice for "cutting his claws". Do you use one specific tone all the time for the words "cutting his claws"? Then your bunny might have connected THAT specific tone of voice to the action of cutting claws.
