God spoke to Solomon in a dream (1 Kings 3:5) and offered him to choose something, which He would grant. Solomon, who was quite young (12 years old) and was in awe of the great responsibility that rested upon him, asked God for wisdom, and was granted it on a vast scale.

"And God gave Solomon wisdom and understanding, exceedingly much,...as the sand that is on the sea-shore. And Solomon's wisdom excelled the wisdom of all the children of the east, and all the wisdom of Egypt. For he was wiser than all men...and his fame was in all the nations round about...And there came of all peoples to hear the wisdom of Solomon, from all kings of the earth..."

What does 'wisdom' mean?

Infinite wisdom means wisdom without limit; it is wisdom that is so great that it allows for understanding of all things, and all philosophical issues. This is an attribute that is normally thought to belong only to God, much like omnipotence and other superhuman traits. If I were to say, what do you in your infinite wisdom believe is the solution to this problem, I would be satirical in my use of the term, since no person has infinite wisdom or anything close to it.
