Back in Darwin's day, people had figured out that species evolve, but the problem of why they did had not been figured out. Darwin's hypothesis was that those organisms who were more fit were the ones that survived, so with time the population became more like those which were most fit. Here "fit" means best able to reproduce and support the offspring. His contribution to modern science is that now all biologists consider the evolutionary importance of something when they are attempting to explain it.

If you apply the evolution theory to math, I guess you can say his contributions to math were: probability of a trait to appear, exponential growth of a certain organism with an advantageous species, and things like that. But really, his purpose was to made contributions to science, not math.
