Start by reading Block pop-up ads and windows in Safari - Apple Support. If that does not adequately explain what you are encountering, a screenshot is likely to help. Please don't capture or upload any information that you may consider personal.
Instructions for capturing, editing (if necessary) and posting a screenshot to this site can be found in the Appendix in Writing an effective Apple Support Communities Question - Apple Community. Scroll down to Screenshots (Mac).
You may be encountering a Safari Notification. Refer to this excerpt from Effective defenses against malware and other threats - Apple Community — specifically, the last bullet point below:
Beware spontaneously appearing, unsolicited popups demanding immediate action. Think before you click.
If that describes it, the reason it happened was that you agreed to have a website send you Notifications. Unless you have a valid reason for agreeing to that annoyance, your automatic and reflexive response ought to be "just say no."
