I asked my counselor about that and she said that on the college application, when they ask "Have you ever been found...of a disciplinary violation?"--if you checked yes, they will know because that disciplinary violation would have been on your record and you would have needed an explanation for the college.
If you checked no, it doesn't matter because it was not on your record.
Detentions aren't held against you because they aren't on your record. If you get in school suspension, suspended or expelled that's totally different.
So, they won't know because it's not on your record.
