Answer

As hinted to in the comments – that’s a calculation of seconds from the current time. That’s 1 day (86400 seconds).

7 Days could be calculated similarly as:

time() + (7 * 24 * 60 * 60);

You can find a lot more explanation and examples in the PHP manual for the time() function – https://www.php.net/manual/en/function.time.php
