burnishing wood

i was watch Norm this weekend use his new high end lathe with variable speed, etc.. anyway, he was turning some table legs, and once he had them shaped and sanded, he picked up some sawdust and rubbed it on the leg while it was still spinning on the lathe. he called it burnishing. do any of you guys do this with your plugs? what is the purpose of burnishing?

thanks, from a total rank amateur.
