You need to translate them into lesswrongese before you try interpreting them together.
probability: he made up a number to go with his feelings about a topic
subjective: the number is even more made up and feelings based than is normal for lesswrong
noticeable: the number is really tiny, but big enough for Eliezer to fearmonger about!
No, you don't get to actually know what the number is, then you could penalize Eliezer for predicting it wrongly or question why that number specifically. Just trust that the bayesianified language shows Eliezer thought really hard about it.
