Mock location is a term used to allow you to specify a location different from where you're actually at (to allow GPS on the emulator, when there is actually no GPS hardware preset, used for testing purposes).

With that setting enabled you can use software like "My Fake Location" from the Market to fool your device into thinking it is somewhere else.  (although you may also need to turn off the Use Wireless Networks setting too if you plan using it with Wi-Fi or cellular turned on)
