"It means just what it sounds like - something doesn't mean anything. It is not a grammatically correct idiom, which is why it probably sounds odd. The original usage was from a song "Don't mean a thing if it ain't got that swing," which means that a song is useless if it doesn't have a good beat."
Where do you get this? Seeing as the song was a 1931 composition by Duke Ellington and the slogan "Don't Tread On Me" was used by the original colonies in the United States I do not see where you can possibly get this answer. Maybe you should ask questions instead.
