I was doing seated inclined dumbell curls. Not really heavy weight (45lbs) and my back was firmly against the bench. All of a sudden my whole lower back essentially spasmed. Any ideas what I hurt or how to prevent that.

How did I hurt my back?

Not really sure.. did you twist to the side at all?
In this context, a likely cause is salt depletion from dehydration which would explain the spasming. Additionally, although it may not be 'over-exercise', your body may have just run out of the energy needed to relax your muscles, and therefore your muscles spasmed.
If you go into the same position again and you repeatedly begin to feel pain, go see a doctor.
To prevent it? Drink fluids and don't skip your preworkout meal.
If you have a tendency to cramp up, then vitamin E and calcium supplements may be in order. I've had some stretches of time were I would randomly get cramps at night...like when your hamstring locks up. Although painful as hell, taking some magnesium helps.
