Generally people used to override the property defined under the machine.config using web.config. for example when you want to increase the session time for your application, then you have to add the session property in your web config file with your choice. otherwise it will take the default session time i.e 20 min from the machine config.
If you will paste same content in the web config file even though its same. so it will not take any effect, will be same.

Becuase machine config is applicable to entire system whereas the web.config is applicable to each application in that system
