Looks like it doesn't mean anything.

The config parsing code ultimately resolves that text to a number here: https://github.com/logrotate/logrotate/blob/471f115b18fa8b7dfafecc74f76e34c14d090620/config.c#L1311

In the context of the logrotate conf file, what does the + sign indicate when used as a prefix size directive?
