No. The target is where you want gnucash to be installed. The downloaded 
gnucash file should be extracted into a directory named "gnucash". And the 
cmake command as used in these instructions should be run from within a 
directory *next* to this "gnucash" directory, not from a directory *inside* 
it. You can read the generic instructions higher on that page to understand 
all the details.

Good luck!
