It's a custom property in a custom property set. 
(The property is "headerName", in the custom 
property set "portal_RowNames".) The notation 
lets you use custom properties in sets without 
having to switch to the set first.

If you search the user guide for "Custom property 
sets and setProp handlers", a short description 
will turn up.
