What does kilocalorie (th)/hour measure?

It measures the rate of heat flow as thermal power, defined as one thermochemical kilocalorie transferred per hour.

Is 1 newton meter/second the same as 1 watt?

Yes, because a newton meter per second equals one joule per second, which defines a watt in mechanical power.
