Afaik it refers to the bacteria being treatment resistant. Usually penicillin resistant bugs are classified as super.

Gonorrhea has been resistant to penicillin for a long time. But now its becoming tesistant to doxycilin which was specific for only a few bugs, and thats really bad, as theres no other strong contenders atm.
