It may be someon has tried logging into you accound from a device that is not on you reconised devices list in facebook. It does look like someone has attempted to hack your account. They also do this if your records dont match eg birthday is wrong or using a nick name ect there is an article here http://www.ghacks.net/2013/10/29/facebook-asking-locked-users-provide-government-id/ on the subject.
