I interpret that paragraph as being able to intuitively understand the relationship between the maths and the physics.
By 'new' math I mean development of new mathematical tool and techniques to deal with new physics theory. Generally physicists are applying existing techniques to new problems, which is why that understanding of the relationship between maths and your theory is important.
