Its a valve stem with hand wheel unless the valve body is buried under the floor out of sight. It looks like a gate valve to me where that lead screw literally lifts or lowers the gate into place in the valve body.

Maybe the thief stole the valve and the photo in the post was focusing on the wheel in an unsuccessful attempt at misdirection.
