It is short for "heck-uva". What they really mean is "h**l-uva, which is shortened to h**l-a. But they don't want to swear.
Example: "Dad, those headphones are heck-a cool."
Translation: "Dad, those Grado SR-225s will provide you a very detailed sound, some would call it almost to bright and fatiguing. They match up very nicely with certain types of music. They look very retro from a styling perspective. I believe that I would like you to buy me a pair too."
So I can live with heck-a.
