the metal spikes are conductors so the heat travels through them and because the spikes are in the middle of the potatoes, the heat travels to the middle of them and helps the potatoes heat up.
Metal is a conductor of heat, the spikes will bring the heat to the center of the potato and cook faster than if they were not spiked.
