It took the Curiosity Lander 253 days to get to Mars and the distance between Earth and Mars at their closest point is about 33,926,867 miles. Do the math correctly and the speed at which Curiosity was traveling was about 5,587 mph.

Why did it take 7 minutes for the radio signal to travel from the Curiosity back to earth?

Radio waves travel "at the speed of light" which, though very fast, is still a finite speed. Mars is far away so it takes 7 minutes for the radio waves to travel the distance from Curiosity to the Mars orbiter that then relays radio communications to Earth. How much delay in the electronics of the relay station in the orbiter and the electronics on Earth I cannot be certain, but certainly a measurable amount though probably less than a few seconds.
