That's for calling numbers in the US, for example, if you were to call a phone number in the US from another country you'd have to dial 001 - XXX - XXXX, however, to dial a US number from the US, from a cell phone, that 1 is not needed, only if you are on a landline.

If you are calling a number in another country from the US, you'd have to dial 011 - (Country code) - (Phone number). The 011 can also be replaced by the + sign on some providers.
