info_null is a point entity available in all 
Source games.
It is removed as soon as it spawns. It is primarily useful as a target for pointing lights at. Another possibility is to use it during map development as a way of keeping location-based notes within the VMF file, using the entity's comments box.
Because this entity isn't removed on compile, it still counts toward the edict limit for a split second until removed on map spawn.
