It's beef stock that has been boiled and reduced until it becomes like a syrup or paste. It's highly concentrated beef flavor so if you use it start with a small amount and only add more as you taste.

Why use milk in white sauce?

Well, white sauces are by their very definition milk or milk product based sauces, rather than broth, stock, or say tomato based sauces. Brown gravy or au jus are by definition based on beef broth, beef stock or beef demiglace, whereas country gravy is a milk based gravy, generally served with pork chops or chicken fried steak. If you're asking why milk versus half and half versus light or heavy cream, my guess is the recipe you are looking at wants less fat than half and half or cream provide.
