The number of ignition pulses tells you how long the engine was overrevved. The level (1, 2, etc.) is the RPM range that was reached. Higher is worse. Level 4 and higher is supposed to be really bad news, and level 1 and 2 aren't so bad. But I'd check with an expert to be sure. I'm pretty disturbed that the dealership didn't know this.
