You cannot install quickstart package from joomla admin panel.

Quickstart package is joomla itself along with sample data and you install it same way you install joomla itself.

Please download and install again following named file same way you install joomla itself.

I am sorry file name is gk_simplicity_quickstart_J!3.zip.

You cannot install this from cpanel. You need to extract the contents of this file and upload them to your ftp. Then create your database from cpanel which you need to enter details during installation steps.

See following link for installing joomla http://docs.joomla.org/J3.1:Installing_Joomla!
