It isn't - at least not directly. 

The TOTP protocol is what authentication apps use to generate unique one
time passwords. You can use such a technique with some 2FA setups for
the 2nd factor. You only use the 2FA authentication to login to your
google account to generate the application passwords. The suggestion is
that you could use the emacs implementation instead of Google
Authenticator or Facebook authenticator etc.
