I am guessing that it is conditional probability given that the above (tree branch) condition exists. However, I am not clear on it.

Answer
Attribute leaf
is the predicted value. In other words, if the evaluation of a tree model ends at that terminal node (aka leaf node), then this is the value that is returned.
In pseudocode (the left-most branch of your tree model):
if(f1 < 127.5){ if(f7 < 28.5){ if(f5 < 45.4){ return 0.167528f; } else { return 0.05f; } } }
