Sam is 100% correct. This will get the phone into DFU mode. iTunes on the computer will always ask you if you want the restore (erase and reset) a DFU mode phone/iPod.
As an alternative, if you cannot get the button timing right for DFU, you could also put it in Recovery mode, which is a bit easier.
To put your iPod in Recovery mode:
1. Turn it off.
2. Start holding the home button
3. With the home button still held down, plug the phone into the computer.
