"lbs" is the plural form of the abbreviation "lb," which recalls the spelling of a Latin word something like "librum," which means "pound"; so 1lbs is 1 pound, a unit of weight. And how much does a pound weigh on a civilized scale? About a pow (a unit useful on occasion in the bazaars of India, Pakistan, and environs), i.e., about half a kilo; although, as has been pointed out, there is a special pound (called the "troy pound" instead of the usual "avoirdupois pound") that's used for weighing precious metals.
Because a gallon of water weighs about 8 pounds (eight and a quarter), because there are eight pints in a gallon, and because there has always been variation from place to place in weights and measures, there is an English proverb: "A pint's a pound, the world around."
