It is a required entry defined as part of the PDF 1.0
specification.
It contains an array which contains doubles, representing PDF
numeric objects.
For definitive details see:.
The ISO PDF Specification, ISO 32000-1:2008 PDF 1.7; Table: 112,

The matrix is a six-element array representing an affine
transformation. The conventional value is [0.001 0 0 0.001 0 0],
which scales glyph space so that 1000 glyph units equal one text
space unit.
Using a different matrix can simplify the glyph stream programs.
For example, a matrix of [1 0 0 1 0 0] means the glyph streams work
directly in text space units, which can be convenient for custom
symbol fonts.
