What mean the Overused stat?

This indicates how much space your node overuses in step with the configured storage space allocated to your node.

Storage space may go above your allocated storage space if you change your configuration.
Example: Let’s say your node stores 2TB. You want to get back 500GB. You’ll reconfigure your node so it has only 1.5TB of allocated space. You’ll then see an overuse of 500GB displayed in this new “Overused” section.

This number will then decrease slowly at the natural pace of customers deletions.

As a side note: getting back storage space by decreasing allocated space works but is super slow - it’s not really possible to efficiently claim back some space used by a node as of today - a new feature named “partial exit” should allow that in the future.
