exactly as it says on the PageMaker product website, actually

"""Quickly lay out publications by creating frames to hold text and
graphics, applying master pages to apply different page designs within a
single publication, and using layers to set up a single file for
multiple versions of a publication."""

cf. http://www.adobe.com/products/pagemaker/overview.html

the term "master page" is less ambiguous maybe. But it's definitely not
a page in the sense of "the concrete page of a book", but instead the
design, the form of a page of a book, that by extension became "the
front page", the "chapter page". If you work with content it definitely
means a different thing.
