They don't mean anything. They simply serve as a visual indicator of learning level to help the instructors.

What does it mean when a student who is taking karate is awarded a belt that is Camouflage with 2 white stripes?

The belt colors vary from school to school. Most kids' programs have added additional, non-traditional belts to help them feel like they are progressing in the classes. They also add stripes to the colors to add even more levels. A better question is to ask them what gup or kyu they are. If they can't tell you, it doesn't mean much.
