xvfb is a virtual X server. calibre command line tools such as ebook-convert (which when given a recipe will download the content from the internet and output it in the format of your choice) must run in X. If you don't have X and want to run the command line tools in a headless environment you can use xvfb which gives the program a virtual X environment so you don't have to run a full X session.
