These things are usually in the appropriate journal articles. So for example:

Since Open Babel uses kJ/mol by default, this is a conversion for the
stretching constant.

The _dpar are floating-point constants, and the _ipar are integer constants (in
all of the Open Babel force field classes).
You can see how they're parsed in bool OBForceFieldGaff::ParseParamFile()
So for example, I see:
> parameter._a = vs[0]; //KNDSYM
> parameter._dpar.push_back(atof(vs[1].c_str())); // AMASS
> parameter._dpar.push_back(atof(vs[2].c_str())); // ATPOL [A^3]
Hope that helps,
