It's a mirror which shows future kings. One of those kings was the then-king of England, James I, who was one of those kings "that two-fold balls and treble sceptres carry" which means he is king of more than one kingdom (England and Scotland). Macbeth's "What! will the line stretch out to the crack of doom?" was politically expedient: it would not have been safe to predict the end of the Stuart monarchs 100 years later.
