Typically a hyperlink which uses the # is refereeing to a specific spot in a document. For instance, if you were opening a Word document the first portion of the hyperlink would be the path and document name, while the text following the # would be the bookmark or page number to land on. However, I don't remember if you gave us the details about what you might be linking to, so it could mean something else dependant on the application you are linking to.
