That symbol does not have a hole. The #10 and 1/4" symbols do not have holes only a silkscreen cross to be used as a manual drill guide. Here is the note from the hardware section of my webpage ---
The symbols for the #10 and 1/4" screws have a copper cross in the center. The copper cross is meant to be used as a manual drill guide. The larger drill sizes do not seem to be common at the low-cost board vendors. I will clarify the wording. To add a hole you would need to add a pin to the symbol. To add a plated hole with a 152mil diameter and an annular ring of 23mils replace the two pad lines with the following line: Pin(0 0 175 152 "" "1" 0x01) (* jcl *) P.S. You should also remove the last two ElementLine statements and the ElementArc statement. They are not needed when you have a hole.
