What does this arrow on an icon in a SharePoint document library mean?

I have a document library on Sharepoint with 2 default content types: Document and Link to a Document. I am adding web resources as links to a document. Ii is usually represented by a blue "e" icon but now i have two links with an additional arrow (see the picture). What is this? What does it mean? I couldn't find anything significant about those two links...

That means it is a "shortcut", a link to a document, rather than the document install. It means it is pointing to a document in a different location.
Sorry, meant to say:

I've been typing "install" too much today. :)

It looked as a shortcut icon to me bur why the rest of shortcuts/links to documents in this library don't have it?
Looking a little closer that may actually be a web shortcut that was uploaded to the library.
I have about 50 web shortcuts in the library and only 2 have the arrow.
