The dark look by Tyrion was meant solely to drum up off season drama and debate about what it means. D&D love doing that kind of crap.

But at the end of the day, it can only be either jealousy (unlikely), or a legit concern that Jon's influence over Dany will reduce his role. Throughout the season, Tyrion screwed up a lot and Dany started asking Jon for advice and then following it while often arguing with Tyrion and not heeding his advice. Now Dany is in bed with Jon, and Tyrion knows that if Dany had followed his advice to do nothing, Jon would be dead. Dany will remember that. Things are not going well for Tyrion in his role as Hand, and Jon and Dany hooking up will only make it worse. If they marry, they only need one hand, and Davos will be the guy, not Tyrion.

Plus he may have some concern about the Queen hooking up with a bastard, even if he is King of the North. Not a good look for the Queen of Westeros to be with a bastard. Of course Tyrion doesn't know Jon is legit.
Can't remember if the prophecy about Dany's betrayals are in the show, but Tyrion betraying her for Cersei would cash in on the last betrayal coming because of "blood" as well as the disagreements between himself and the Dragon Queen this season.
