In the old days it didn �t mean anything, it was just a part of the Morse code system - but later on people gave it the meaning to Save our Ship or Save our Souls.

Save our souls is how it is translated but it was the morse code for those three letters that was easy to understand and decipher among other messages: ... _ _ _ ... (for those of you not familiar with the morse code: alphabet made out of dots and ligns on paper but air transmitted in the olden days especially at sea.)
still used by some of us :D (code geeks I suppose!!!)
