Please read the paragraph before that line, which explains that the line you 
are referencing is boilerplate, and thus the bracketed portions should be 
replaced with the appropriate information for the derived work:

APPENDIX: How to apply the Apache License to your work.

      To apply the Apache License to your work, attach the following
      boilerplate notice, with the fields enclosed by brackets "[]"
      replaced with your own identifying information. (Don't include
      the brackets!)  The text should be enclosed in the appropriate
      comment syntax for the file format. We also recommend that a
      file or class name and description of purpose be included on the
      same "printed page" as the copyright notice for easier
      identification within third-party archives.

I am sorry to be poor at English.
The copyright of the LICENSE file included in Noto-windows.zip is written to be 
[yyyy] [name of copyright owner].

As I explained above, that string in the "LICENSE" file is not an actual 
copyright notice, but rather an example or boilerplate copyright notice whose 
bracketed portions are expected to be replaced with the information for the 
derived work. In other words, this is intentional and not an issue.

The actual copyright notices are specified in the name.ID=0 strings of each 
font.
