It's a warning to truck drivers of a steep grade ahead, and gives an advisory speed for which they should go down that grade. Advisory signs are applicable to all traffic, and that particular sign isn't limited just to Class 6 - 8 trucks - if you lose your brakes in a pickup truck and wind up in an accident because you failed to heed that advisory and adjust your speed going down the hill in order to ensure that you didn't burn out your brakes, you can be held liable, all the same.
