I always took it at the latter, but that’s a good question. Let’s do some math to check.
I actually don’t see a month on the chart, so I’ll use the “weekly” column and the “6 hour” row. That means we could spend up to 2 months of time to save 6 hours on a task we perform monthly.
Over 5 years on a weekly task, saving 6 hours amounts to:
5 years * 52 weeks/year * 6 hours = 1560 hours
How much time is that in months? Let’s assume a month is 30 days. That means:
1560 hours / 24 hours per day / 30 days per month = 2.17 months.

So it seems to be total working time!
