What is the impact on SEO, Whenwhen internal links pointing to "/" or "example.com" (homepage)?

LetsLet's assume I have website example.com and 1000s of inner pages.

Is there any difference in terms of SEO ranking (SERP) when I link to my home page from all the inner pages using "/" and "example.com" ?

In my Google Webmaster Tool (Search Console), Search Traffic -> Internal Links I see around 1000s of internal links pointing to my domain "www.example.com", I hope it should be displayed as "/"

My concern is, If Google botif Googlebot thinks that these internal links are pointing to some other pages rather than actual home page, then the 1000s of internal links weightage will go to some other page.
