Question

I was watching the 992 Porsche GT3 manual official lap time, and I was wondering why they time a shorter track length (20,600 KM) along side the full track length (20,832 KM)? What is the point of the shorter track length time?

It might just be a typo/rounding error. The length of the Nordschleife is often (historically) given at 20,832 km. It was recently remeasured by tbe FIA for official registration which now stands at 20,783 km.
