Fallout – What does the objective “kill 4 nones” mean

Just got an objective to kill 4 nones without weapons, am I missing something or is this a glitch?

It's possible that this is some sort of glitch, more specifically a null pointer error, as there is no such entity named "None" in Fallout Shelter or the Fallout universe in general.
In many languages a mistake could be made in the code which causes an 'object', such as the name of an enemy you need to kill, to end up being nothing or null.
Some languages such as Python and possibly others use the notation None instead of null.
Likely there is also code that attempts to make the object plural if you have to kill more than one so None gets an s appended to the end.
This is possibly why you are getting that being displayed.
It's possible that this is still achievable, but it is unlikely and I'd recommend skipping it.
The times I have had the need to "off" a dweller I just send them into the waste and let them die there. You will have the option to "remove" them once they are dead.
Just remember to send them out without any outfit or weapon.
Yeah, Fallout Shelter objectives can sometimes be weird or frustrating but depending on the reward you can decide it's worth the trouble or dismiss it (if you haven't dismissed anything else that day).
How I completed several Assign X dwellers to the right room objectives was to send dwellers exploring the wasteland and when they come back you assign them to the right room or retrain a dweller on another skill. If it has 3 S and 2 A, you retrain his Agility and put him in the Diner.
This can take a lot of time but like I said, it all depends on the objective's reward. The second objective: Have 1 Bald Dweller in the Vault can take even more time but you can start by making a lot of kids. You need the people for your Vault anyway... I'm making around 10 people a day. Today, 2 of them were bald. So it's just chance. If you have radios, there's also the chance that a new dweller is bald...
Remember the fact that Fallout Shelter it's not really the type of game were you start and play for hours... there are objectives or actions that can take hours or days in real life so you just adapt to this gameplay. It's a bit like a Tamagotchi :)
