Hi Sunny,
There is one small doubt.
The sample value i have given above is : 305942400000
Why have you taken only 30594.00 as the input value for the function?
What if the value is like "717292800000". Do we need to take the first five digits only in all the cases?

How do we have to interpret the value in that double property? Is it "milliseconds since the begin of the epoch"? If so, try this:
return String.format( "%tF", java.lang.Math.round( dateDouble ) );
It the date is encoded to the double value in a different way, we first need to know details about that format.
Create a new function as shown below .. eg name : DoubleToDate
Then from your DataTransform call that function :
