What is this?

On the engine compartment side, it just goes to ground. On the interior side, it's just hanging. It seems like an awful lot of pomp and circumstance for "just a ground wire", to poke it through the fire wall with that hard plastic piece.

Looks like a ground wire that someone really wanted hooked to that existing ground point.
