That's one million megawatt hours. Watt-hours are the most confusing unit ever, and measure energy, not power. (A watt-hour is the amount of energy produced by one watt for an hour.)
1e6 MW hours = 3.6e15 joules. The power plant generates this over a year, so that 3.6e15 joules / year = 114 MW on average.
