Here's why:
* Missing a subject: It lacks a subject (the person or thing performing the action). We don't know *who* is doing something *until* his mother calls.
* Incomplete thought: The phrase only describes a condition ("until his mother called him twice"), but doesn't tell us what happened as a result of that condition.
To make it a complete sentence, you could add a subject and a verb:
* He waited until his mother called him twice.
* He didn't leave until his mother called him twice.
