Thanks for the clarification. I had it wrong and I just fixed the translation. The text at http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qml-qtqml-date.html#details has a paragraph about «All other input characters will be ignored. Any sequence of characters that are enclosed in singlequotes will be treated as text and not be used as an expression. Two consecutive singlequotes ("''") are replaced by a singlequote in the output.» which explains the issue from a programmer's point of view. That is, the singlequotes are required so that Qt does not ignore the text 'Today'. The translation comment could be made a bit better if we change "TRANSLATORS: this is a datetime formatting string, and the singlequote is an escape character. See http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-5/qml-qtqml-date.html#details for valid expressions." to something like "TRANSLATORS: this is a datetime formatting string, and the singlequote is an escape character. Translate what is inside the singlequotes but please keep those exact singlequotes in the translated message. See http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-5/qml-qtqml-date.html#details for valid expressions."
