"One class SVM confidence"

Hello. I m trying to preform a one-class classification using LibSVM. In the output i get a huge positive or negative confidence and a prediction label that is either inside or outside. Does inside mean that the unlabeled data belongs to the one-class of the training data ?

Why the confidence value is so huge (it is in the order of billions) ? Should n't it be from 0 to 100 ?
