If you go into your protocol list, expand a type (e.g TCP or UDP services for example) double click on a protocol (e.g. HTTP), click on Advanced, if "Match for Any" is ticked, will be allowed through by your service of "Any".

Hope this helps.
That only applies if you have multiple objects on the same port configured. If you setup say a tcp object call test1 and give it port 123 and then create test2 with the same port 123, the one that has Match for any, is where it will get its properties from when used in an any rule. If there is not specific service setup for the port, then match for any does not apply. If there is already a single object with that setup, it just pulls that objects properties.

So in short, any does mean all ports 1-65535, just when/if something is ticked as Match for any, it will use that object for properties like timeout, sync, type.
