I highly doubt that is 2mm in length. Did you use a ruler, or did you estimate it? It looks like Nylanderia.

I estimated because I do not have mm they were almost half a cm. Are those Poly?

Half of a centimeter is 5 millimeters. There are 10 millimeters in a centimeter. Are you asking wether or not they are polygynous?

That would be the right size for Nylanderia.

Ants often meet to swarm on special places like hills or other exposed things. Thst does not mean, that they are polygynous. Only when more than one fertile queen is IN THE NEST, than the colony ist polygynous.
But FYI there are several forms of polygyny.

sadly all 52 queens and 3 drones are now dead i don't know why, but my other colonies seems to like it.
