Yes, that is a unicode translation. \ is the escape character, u means it is unicode and that means the following 4 bytes are the number of the unicode character in hex. However, the error is thrown because of the double quotes around it. Double quotes are identifier quotes, which means that whatever is inside them is the literal name of a database object (table, field etc.). The unicode conversion itself appears to be valid.
