It can mean a couple of different things. In solfege, the art of singing without the aid of a tuned instrument, the syllables do re mi, etc can take the place of the notes of a song, with 'do' representing the 'tonic', no matter what the key signature is. This is the moveable do system. Do can also be assigned to the standard pitch C, with the other syllables following accordingly. So mi can be the note a major third up from a song's tonic or key, and mi can also represent the fixed tone E. In most uses in the US, the moveable do is used.
