The DirectoryIndex can be a number of pages:

index.html index.htm index.kvws index.wml index.php index.shtml index.cgi index.php3 index.phtml default.htm index.jsp index.rhtml index.rbx index.asp default.asp index.cfm default.cfm etcetera...

The web server knows that a request for domain.com/ is really a request for domain.com/filename.ext but PhpDig might treat domain.com/ and domain.com/filename.ext as two different pages, so "Clean dashes" removes domain.com/ type pages from the engine. These domain.com/ type pages are marked with a "-" when you look at the indexed pages via the admin panel. Also, you may be interested in this thread.
