The following is what the temporary storage message is about and also how it may have been triggered. See: Get temporary iCloud storage when you buy a new iPhone or iPad - Apple Support


It will be deleted automatically. See the following from the same support article:

You have 21 days to restore your temporary backup to your new iPhone or iPad before your temporary iCloud storage expires and your backup is permanently deleted.
