That icon is part of the cooldown bar which is part of the HUD... it shows you which spells you have cooldowns active on and gives you an alert when the spell is ready to cast again. It is *not* the same as your other auras which is why it isn't next to them. Likewise, since the information it contains is combat relevant (alerting you when you can use it again to melt the face off another player/mob or whatever), it is front and center in the HUD in the same way that the spells you have cast on the other player/mob and their remaining times.

I'm not sure why you wouldn't want that information. However, everyone does play differently, so nUI does give you the option to lose the cooldown bar if you don't want it... or to individually lose the text and/or audio alerts that go with it.

/nui hud cooldown -- this will toggle the cooldown bar on or off entirely... alerts and all
/nui hud cdalert -- this turns off the text alert message without turning the bar off
/nui hud cdsound -- turns off the cooldown alert sound the plays when a spell is ready

Of course, turning the HUD off entirely also loses the cooldown bar.

As far as moving the bar goes... the only way to do that would be to edit the skin for the HUD. In nUI 5.0 that would be in [ Interface > AddOns > nUI > Layouts > HUDLayouts > {hud mode} > nUI_HUDLayout_{hud mode}.lua ]
