The % stuff is telling you which network interface it is associated with. At
the ping level, you can use things like xxxxxx%eth0 to tell it to use eth0 as
compared to eth99. It lets you use link-local IPv6 addresses, or something
like that.
There is probably a way to turn it off. I haven't looked. That code is in
libntp/socktoa.c.
