It's gigawatts mispronounced.

 From the IMDB:

Doc Brown's dog Einstein arrives from the world's first time-travel 
excursion at 1:21am. Coincidentally, the DeLorean requires 1.21 
gigawatts of electricity to travel through time.

Also:

  The prefix "giga" was formerly more commonly pronounced as jiga, just 
as Doc Brown pronounces it.
