That's the font rule long hand. Where the author provided two separate measures of font size I believe. The first unit is % and the second unit is ems.
I've seen it before but it's very rare and IMHO, I believe it's overkill. I'm also against writing longhand font declarations since I've seen cross browser inconsistencies specifically IE versions mess it up.
