Thank you David and Andy. Now, everything is clear.
For others, the problem is the one said in the subject, and the answer is the one excerpted from reply from David.

When we run tune.* for parameter tuning, we get performance value.
Can you tell me what the definition of it is?

The values returned by tune() are Mean Squared Errors in case of
regression, and simple rates (*no* percentages) in case of
classification. As Andy already suggested, you might want to check if
your target variable is indeed a factor. In case it is and you still get
values greater than 1, drop me a mail with a piece of code (and data)
enabling me to reproduce the phenomenon.


Best,
David
