How do I access another user's data by a specific field?

I'm trying to make a user send their num to another user. I created a random keycode for every user to send each other a num.

I tried accessing the data by querying them.

     const sendNum = async(e) => {
        const userCol = collection(db, "users")  
        e.preventDefault();
        

        const targetQuery = query(userCol, where("keycode", "==", target))
        const targetSnapshot = await getDocs(targetQuery)
        
        targetSnapshot.forEach((doc) => {
            console.log(doc.data().num);
        })
        console.log(targetSnapshot);

But it returns an object rather than the another user's num field

Nu {_firestore: xc, _userDataWriter: ah, _snapshot: Oo, metadata: Su, query: Ic}

Here's what the data looks like:

From the description it's not possible to tell what value the target holds. In this case, hard coding the value worked to access the user field.
