It’s just a ‘proper’ IPv6 private address, the IPv6 equivalent of ‘10.’.
I say proper as a private address in ipv6 is supposed to be fd, then 40 random bits, then whatever you want. Nothing stops you from having fd::/64 as your private network though. The thinking was people who got tired of merging networks that happened to choose the same 10.x.x.x scheme and/or vpn connecting to multiple sites similarly with the same private address. So they thought it would be swell if every private network on earth would likely be unique, so they said you ‘must’ randomize 5 bytes of it. Then no renumbering/no conflicting vpn connections.
Fwiw, I now use 10.10.220.0/24. I now know what class A, B and C are. I didn’t then.
Hopefully that offers you some comfort.
Everyone knows you need to be using a network like fd25:c74c:a5e9::/64. So much more fun that way.
I’m sure this is hilarious, but I don’t know enough about IPv6 to get it.
