The header parameters are documented here --

You can open the downloaded CSV including the first line (header) in Excel or Google docs to check out the headers.

16 is short for year 2016. Thus, the future that expires in May 2016 ends with 16MAYFUT

Terribly sorry, I misread your question.
@Golz
is correct. 16 in the tradingsymbol denotes the expiry year.
