Salt melts the ice, as the freezing point of saltwater is lower than that for pure water. It takes energy to melt the ice. The energy comes from the heat in the ice. This cools the mixture. Ice and salt will potentially cool to 0 degrees farenheit. That is where the 0 mark comes from.

It's just not salt, it's rock salt, this helps keep the ice from melting so fast and to make the ice cream.
