6This is the one who came by water and blood—Jesus Christ. He did not come by water only, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit who testifies, because the Spirit is the truth. 7For there are three that testify: 8the[a] Spirit, the water and the blood; and the three are in agreement. 9We accept man's testimony, but God's testimony is greater because it is the testimony of God, which he has given about his Son. 10Anyone who believes in the Son of God has this testimony in his heart. Anyone who does not believe God has made him out to be a liar, because he has not believed the testimony God has given about his Son. 11And this is the testimony: God has given us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. 12He who has the Son has life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have life." I John 5

Right. When a person dies, the red blood cells separate out from the watery plasma. The people back then might not have known that but it's proof we understand today that death has occurred.

Actually, there is ample proof to show that they did know that that water mixed with blood was an evidence of death - even though they had no understanding of the human cell.

the significance might have been that the ark of the covenant was hidden in Jeremiah's grotto, which were some hidden caves directly below Golgotha.
and Christ was stabbed, and out of His side (JN 19:34) came forth blood and water.
and then MT 27:51 the rocks were torn rent.

the blood was sprinkled on the mercy seat.
