There is a post, 'No more Secrets',
http://kea-monad.blogspot.com/2007/02/no-more-secrets.html
about another possible 'meaning' of those 'zeros'
(of the Zeta function).[1][2][3]

"Our purpose is to report on the development
of an analogy, in which three areas of mathematics
and physics, usually regarded as separate, are
intimately connected. The analogy is tentative
and tantalizing, but nevertheless fruitful.
The three areas are eigenvalue asymptotics in wave
(and particularly quantum) physics, dynamical chaos,
and prime number theory. At the heart of the analogy
is a speculation concerning the zeros of the Riemann
Zeta function (an infinite sequence of number encoding
the primes): the Riemann zeros are related to the
eigenvalues (vibrational frequencies or quantum energies)
of some wave system, underlying which is a dynamical
system whose rays or trajectories are chaotic."

and Eigenvalue Asymptotics" - SIAM Review 41, n.2 (1999)
