Milk contains fat. When it reaches boiling temperature, the water at the top evaporates rapidly leaving behing a thin layer of fat. This fat seals the surface preventing water from evaporating. This water (steam) is collected under the film and forms a big bubble which enlarges as the milk continues to heat and pushes the surface to the top till it spills.
