She did it to save her fellow X-men from certain death, if Kurt teleported her back into the X-Jet then they would've have all died.
You may have noticed that throughout the film Jean's powers were going odd, they were weak, then too powerful and each time she used them her eyes lit up with fire. In the comicbooks, back in 1996 (I think) there was a story called the Phoenix Force. I dare not explain it otherwise X3 will be ruined for you but I'll just say that this force is insanely powerful, powerful enough to destroy an entire planetary system. This force is within Jean.
In the final shot of the film you see the Phoenix rising from the watery grave.
It's late, gotta get into bed, laters!
