It comes from the Latin "Modus Operandi", which can be translated as "usual way of doing things". To the police MO is very helpful to identify a criminal, because it is like a signature.

Method of Operation. The general idea is that criminals do things the same way they did when they were previously successful. TV detectives don't generally speak latin, so it's convenient that this works out in English for them.
