    Developers of Zend Engine was jewish guys, so they wished to put some hebrew in it.

    More specifically, they were Israeli guys.
    It means "Twice" ("Paamayim") and "Nekudotayim" is the name of ":" in Hebrew.

    I think more likely they programmed in their native tongue, and this might have missed translation into English.
