Why did the British use the words terra nullius?

Terra Nullius means "land that belongs to no-one".This applied to Australia in 1788 because the British did not recognise that the indigenous people of Australia were the rightful "owners" of the land. Because the Aborigines were seen as little more than black savages, the British considered that Australia belonged to no-one and that it was within their right to claim the land as their own, and to do with it (and its people) whatever they wished.
