A couple of questions:

What program was the original SVG made in? If you open the original in the program do you see the extra text? Did you modify the text in the original for final output? DId you hide the text or remove it?

Do you use a content management system? Is the path in the dita set to the current version of the image?

My guess is it is how the browser handles the SVG. You should be able to open the SVG in notepad and search for the text string that is showing up. Try deleting it.
