what's the signal?

You are defending 4X after LHO opened a strong 1NT, and p has shown long spades (presumably 6). Your defensive agreements are UDCA and primary signal is attitude.

 

you are on lead and put the Q on the table from Qx. dummy shows up with Kxxx. p contributes the 2 as you win the first trick.

 

 

What would you assume the 2 is without discussion when playing with an expert? what would you prefer it to mean?

The primary signal has become obsolete (in a sense) in this hand when attitude in spades is already known - partner bid them and I held the first trick with Q. Matter of partnership agreement whether the 2 is then suit preference or count. But if looking at dummy, diamond lead doesn't appear crazy then I would continue diamonds, taking the 2 as suit preference.
