If you dodged a bullet, you had a very narrow escape. The image is of someone actually managing to get out of the way of a bullet fired at them. If you barely escaped something bad, you'd say "I really dodged the bullet." This is usually a figurative danger rather than a literal one -- mostly you hear the phrase in terms of a bad situation at work or home. An example would be "You really dodged the bullet when you managed to convince the boss that you really were home sick yesterday."
It means that you were about to get into some real trouble, but you got real lucky and for what ever reason the trouble didn't effect you.
It means escape without harm, avoiding the worse case scenario.Example:"Good thing I got an 82 on the final, or I would have had to go to summer school--I really dodged a bullet!"
