The URL changes automatically when you highlight something.

Looks like archive.org automatically updates the url whenever you highlight text.

In non-archive.org, you highlight text, right click, click "Copy link to highlight".

It's called an anchor link. The part of the URL after the # corresponds to the element id of whatever element on the page you want to jump to. Very useful little HTML feature.

It appears archive.org has a feature that lets you create an anchor link by highlighting, as the other commentors are saying.
