ThayilBeGod's interpretation is pretty good. Didn't think of that at all. I'm not sure it has a meaning so much as it was just written with a fast, travelling pace, the way the song is so fast, the drumming is mad, and he's saying "million, million miiiiiiiiles" etc etc, just trying to portray something going fast. Soundgarden often said that the meaning of the song was not important, it was best to make up your own interpretation of it, so I think with this song, they're leaving it up to you, but want it to seem fast, so perhaps someone entering a planet, or a car going fast, hell I dunno.
