data of column 6 is string, so if you want to convert into numeric it will return 'NaN'. you have to work with this column 6 as a cell array of character vector or a string array.
what is you expectation except this ?

data = table([1;2], [3;4], [5;6], ["Healthy";"Disease"], 'variablenames', {'Energy', 'variance', 'std', 'class'})
[data.class, groups] = findgroups(data.class)
table2array(data)
That is, the class data has been grouped into categories, and for each entry a category number was generated and replaces the strings in the table. Now the class column is a code that indicates the class, but has no inherent numeric meaning. You can take the value of the column and use it to index the groups variable to recover the class string information.
