Hi Gurvemeh
I believe NPC is for Non Playable Character meaning basically everyone except you and any coplay players- And player is you of course. so this weapon will inflict 400 damage on all in game characters except you... and 75 damage to you the player.

I wonder, is it "damage inflicted to NPCs" or "damage inflicted by NPCs"?

Looking at the data a bit within the Weapons table i would have to say it is Damage to the NPC. Generally the numbers are set within damage max to inflict more damage to the NPCs with the given weapon. I am not super knowledgeable on this stuff though. IdolNinja would certainly know.

NPC_Damage = damage done to NPCs by the weapon
Player_Damage = damage done to player characters by the weapon

Check out the information at the bottom of the table files, it explains what most of this stuff means.
