It is a Multiset application. My recollection of the addition is that due to 
parser changes in 1.6, a statement like:

exten => s,1,Set(FOO=hello,BAR=world)

would result in a variable called FOO being set to the value "hello,BAR=world".
The MSet application was added to facilitate being able to set multiple 
variables in a single application call. If using MSet, the above would instead 
result in a variable called FOO being set to the value "hello" and a variable 
called BAR being set to "world".
