The threshold is indicated by parallel white bars (usually 4 or 6 each side of the centerline). The number is just next to these. 1000 feet further on is the aiming point markers which
are the part of the touchdown zone you should aim for, although the touchdown zone extends to 3000ft with 1500, 2000, 2500, and 3000 feet markers.
These are used only by smaller planes (like GA) which want to land further up on a long runway to turn off quicker.
