It is an allocation for the 'country/region' of Europe.
Just like there are allocations being made to 'ap' which stands for
Asian Pacific. There are also some allocations to be found which are
used by global operators.

http://www.sixxs.net/tools/grh/tla/ lists the following regions:

105x US (the collection of all the states ;)
 10x Europe
   2x Asia Pacific

I only see one allocation from New Zealand though and it isn't visible
yet...

Greets,
 Jeroen
