It means that the image on the screen is refreshed 60 times a second. It can be changed in the advanced display properties to any refresh rate the display supports.

Using the word refresh to define what a 60 Hz refresh rate is is a tautology. Better to use other words like redraw. The screen is redrawn 60 times a second. – psusi Jun 1 '11 at 13:55
