Let's step through the loop.
myaddresses.length = 4

1st time round. x starts as 0. x is less than 3. 1 is added to x. x is 
now 1. The loop body executes with x = 1, myaddresses[x] = 
['Auckland',20].

2nd time round. x starts as 1. x is less than 3. 1 is added to x. x is 
now 2. The loop body executes with x = 1, myaddresses[x] = 
['Wellington',1].

3rd time round. x starts as 2. x is less than 3. 1 is added to x. x is 
now 3. The loop body executes with x = 1, myaddresses[x] = ['Taupo',35].

4th time round. x starts as 3. x is not less than 3. loop terminates.

You might like to look at the (admittedly non jquery) page here:
