please share some screenshots this is for which table and field etc
If your reference field refers to pm_project table then OOB it shows project name only and if you want to change it to number then you will have to update Dictionary entry for Number field on pm_project table and use dictionary override
But remember it will impact everywhere wherever reference field refers to project table

the field is on proc_po table which is referencing pm_project table whose parent is task but if change the display value for number field on the pm_project table then the name field on change request table is also affecting whose parent is task table

that should not happen.
Open the number field present on task
Then create a dictionary override for pm_project table and set Override display = true
But this change will be global
