This is kind of like when you "crack" your knuckles... a bubble of nitrogen gas actually gets "sucked" out of the blood/tissue surrounding the knuckle into the joint. In this case it has happened in a spinal disk that is degenerating (wearing out)... It's fairly rare. Nothing to worry about as long as that is what it is... Very very rarely, early infections can look something like this in a disc, but your doctor has run the appropriate lab tests to make sure it's nothing to be concerned about... (otherwise you wouldn't be asking about something on an XRay report)
