What 𪛛 means
It marks 尺 one octave lower in Kunqu notation.
Gongche notation writes pitches as characters and grew from wind-instrument fingering signs; it was in use by the Sui-Tang period.
In Taiwan, Beiguan and Nanguan are two traditional music styles with different octave marks: Beiguan turns the final stroke down for low notes; one Nanguan convention places the grass radical (艹) above them.

1Why does 𪛛 show as a box on some devices?
Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
