It doesn't mean reviews from finders, it means that a person called a "reviewer" will look at your cache to make sure it's not violating any guidelines. The reviewer will then publish it, or get back to you with things that need to be changed.

The reviewer is a Groundspeak volunteer, and there is already at least one assigned to your area.

You don't need to do anything at this point except wait to hear from your reviewer.

Hope that helps.
