It could be a number of things: the dog is being territorial, isn't socialized enough (thus being unsure or afraid of strangers, or has learned to be aggressive towards other people), or it is dominant over you and thinks it's protecting you against other people. Another thing is that you probably inadvertently tried to reassure the dog by petting him, only this caused him to think it was okay to be in this state of mind (afraid, unsure, aggressive, dominant, territorial) towards strangers.
