What does kilocalorie (IT)/minute measure?

It measures power as the rate of energy transferred or expended, where one kilocalorie (International Table) of energy is delivered each minute.

In what fields is microjoule/second [µJ/s] commonly used?

It is commonly used in electronics and optical systems to specify very low continuous power, such as in microcontrollers, IoT sensors, and photonics equipment.

Why might the converted numbers be very large?

Because kilocalorie (IT)/minute and microjoule/second differ greatly in magnitude, converting results in large numerical values.
