2Total rep is the user's own rep + the rep of any users they've referred. That user referred Tom Au with 99.6k rep.– hichris123Feb 19, 2016 at 23:58

If you hover over the "total reputation" tab, you can see that it says
Committers with the highest reputation including users they have referred
Meaning that the "total rep" displayed is the sum of both their reputation and the reputation of everybody that they referred.
