Concussion, C is the number of dice rolled for damage if someone/something is hit directly by the round.
Burst, B is the primary burst radius, in meters, for the explosion; secondary burst radius is twice the listed number.

Penetration is a separate rating, but it may also have a "--C" if the round in question is an explosive one.

The M12 SMAW rating that you cite would do 2d6+55 points of damage to any vehicle that it strikes (less the armor, per the Vehicle Damage Resolution table).
The Admiral's correct in his posting. Concussion Damage is delivered to everyone in the Primary Burst Radius. 1/2 Concussion is delivered to the Secondary Burst Radius.

As Commanche pointed out already, the "C" in Penetration stands for Constant (through all ranges).
