None of those figures are the weight of the empty van, the only reliable way to find that out is to put it on a weighbridge.
The weights shown on your plate are:- (top to bottom)
Gross vehicle weight (max permissable weight of van and load)
Gross train weight (max permissable weight of van + Trailer + load)
Max front axle weight (max weight of van and load over the front axle)
Max rear axle weight (max weight of van and load over the rear axle)
