This tends to come up only with New York driver's licenses, so I am going answer assuming you are in New York.  The document number is an 8 or 10 digit alphanumeric number found either on the back of the license or lower right hand corner (depending on the year of your license).   It is not the same as the drivers license number.  I have included a link to the NY authority that displays images below.

the I-9 form asks for a document number as does the e-verify system for new employees.  In Texas, we have a 20 digit DD number (the letters DD: followed by 20 digits) near the bottom of the card (in the middle, not lower right or on the back).  The DD is called the audit number and also called the document discriminator.  Would this be the number that we would enter under "Document Number" for driver's license?
