That's the description in the package's control file; dpkg is simply
displaying it:

        Depends: cpp (>= ${version:cpp}), gcc-${pv:gcc} ${reqv:gcc}

        Description: The GNU C compiler
         This is the GNU C compiler, a fairly portable optimizing compiler for 
C.
         .
         This is a dependency package providing the default GNU C compiler.
