It is oil being blown into the coolant passages. Oil pressure is higher than coolant, so it blows into the coolant passages. Then it gets all mixed up by the water pump and looks like that. It definately isn't a good thing, some coolant probably went in the oil after shut down and can kill your bearings because of the diluted oil.
