I suppose:
"Editor's Pick": extensions that the favorites of the editors / administrators of http://extensions.joomla.org/
"hot": extensions that are popular in the community (many downloads)

From the "Using this Site" manual:
http://extensions.joomla.org/content/view/15/63/1/5/

The Editor's Pick are extensions recommended by the editors of the Joomla! Extensions Directory. They have been specifically chosen to be the most effective extensions in each category.

Editor's Picks serve as a great value to Joomla! users to spot great extensions from the directory. The editors hope this type of featured listing will also to be a catalyst for the continued development of elegant solutions for Joomla! To reduce biases, the editors of the directory gather feedback from the directory team to suggest and vote for Editor's Pick. There is generally only one Editor's Pick per category so that the main ranking is determined by user votes.
