It's a number of digits which you have to take in count when you have to round a number (physical value such as speed, acceleration and so on).

e.g. if you have the number 0.0000067 the signifigant figures are 67; zeros don't matter, unless they are between two actual numbers like in 405000 the signifigant figures are 405
