That is the version in the ubuntugis repository. Logically that one
refers to the one version of grass in the ubuntugis repository:
apt-cache show grass
...
Provides: grass640

The provides construct is used here to make sure that you use the
plugin with the same version of grass as the one qgis was built
against, because otherwise problems may occur.
