    Looks like water damage to me? Are the floors waxed? if so I would test a spot removal with some mineral spirits to see if it will remove it. If not you will need to sand down and refinish.

    Did you use a floor cleaner not recommended for wood floors? If yes, clean with Bona mixed with a little white vinegar Use a micro cloth to clean and then dry. It may take a couple of times.

    It looks like paint was spilled and not cleaned up very well and left a residue

    Could be one of many things that caused it. To clean it, try using a floor steam cleaner. I luv my HAAN but Shark, Bissell, Hoover, etc. also make them.
