What is the name of the literary device by which a realistic detail gains predictive and perhaps even symbolic meaning as the story progresses, or when we look back at how the story developed?

Yes, it is foreshadowing, a literary device that hints or predicts what is going to happen later in the story or an advance prediction about the future.
