You're misreading it now.  Reading through the mutilated formatting, it
says that each test completed without error, has 00% of the test remaining
to be run, completed when the drive's lifetime power-on hour counter was
at 3502 (or 27) hours, and the LBA of the first error was "-" (i.e., there
was no error).
