iPod touch, iOS 2.x
See this support document for update error explanations. Get help with iOS update and restore errors - Apple Support
I believe that was at the time when iPhone OS (it was originally called iPhone OS before it became iOS) updates were still a paid upgrade. The easiest way to update your iPod would be to download the .ipsw file (the operating system package) and manually update it (since Apple no longer sells the older iPhone OS upgrades).
Here is a news article from 2010 that will explain it a little better.
