This is the geographic center of all surfaces on Earth.
The two-dimensional equivalent of a geographic center on a piece of irregular shaped paper is its center of gravity. Mathematically this can be easily translated towards the two-dimensional surface of Earth's sphere.

See page 3ff of this article for the historic origins:

German translation of title: Geographisches Zentrum aller Landflächen
