I always thought Mihawk was talking in metaphors and was saying something was up with Whitebeard, that he was weaker than he should be. It was foreshadowing that Whitebeard wasn't healthy and Mihawk was the first one to notice this. He swings a testing slash at Whitebeard to see what happens and behold, it isn't even Whitebeard that deals with it. Jozu steps in. Almost like Jozu is concerned about his captain's failing health.
It being purely about distance is would be pretty lame. In an arena of numerous cunning characters, Mihawk's sharp eyes picking up on Whitebeard's condition is cooler in my opinion. It gives him a nice extra bit of characterisation.
