Typically, it means that the ignition didn't spark when the computer expected it to spark. It should be an electronic ignition module, or possibly even a fluke. I'm surprised they didn't read the OBD and find this problem in the first 2 minutes. It is not generally indicative of any kind of catastrophic failure though.
In an autocross event I missed a shift and ground a gear. The resulting engine stutter apparently confused the ignition, and it didn't fire when it thought it should. Error showed misfire on an entire cylinder bank (3 cylinders). A reset, and the problem never came back (because it was my driving, not an electronic malfunction).
You'll know soon enough, but my money is on the ignition module or a computer further up the line.
Keep your chin up!
