What is a mass moment?

I am currently reading through a document Finding Moments of Inertia from MIT, page 4, and I am a little confused as to one of the concepts that they use.

In this document, there is mention of a mass moment. Could someone possibly define this for me please? I can't find anything too clear on the Internet.

Is this synonymous with the first moment of mass?
