It refers to the fact that you specify a file, as the surrounding text
suggests.  Moreover, at least in the stand-alone Info reader, the
``file'' thing causes it to look for the string "file" in the
referenced node and put point there, if found.  So it looks like in
this case, whoever added that ``file'' part, actually knew what they
were doing.

We can have them both: your change left the second argument of @pxref
empty.  How about leaving ``file'' in the second argument, and adding
your 3rd arg?
