Watershed means a time or event that marks a change of course, a division. It's a turning point. So a watershed year is when something major happened to change the course of things. For example 2001 is a watershed year as things changed drastically when the US was attacked on their own soil fir the first time in 60 years, and it changed the way we handle national security, travel, privacy and our civil rights.
Another example is the 1960s: a watershed decade for civil rights.
