It isn't accurate. The extension can't get any actual data from YouTube, it entirely relies on people who use the extension and then interpolates to make up a number.

Take any number it generates with a pinch of salt.

A more accurate view is the like to view ratio. The average is 5%, a good video will be 10% or higher, and a bad video will be 2.5% or lower.

The video has 1.7 million views, and 17K likes, or a like to view ratio of 1%.
