What does kilocalorie (IT)/cubic meter represent?

It represents the energy per volume unit indicating the calorific value of gaseous fuels expressed as kilocalories (International Table) per cubic meter.

Why convert kilocalorie (IT)/cubic meter to Btu (th)/cubic foot?

Converting allows uniform expression of fuel energy content for billing, combustion calculations, and comparing fuel quality in different unit systems.

Does this conversion consider fuel flow rates or mass-based energy?

No, the conversion strictly applies to volumetric energy density and does not account for flow rates or energy based on fuel mass.
