The Jews of the day did not accept that Jesus was the King of the Jews or the Kingdom of God. They killed him for claiming he was the King as he was the Son of God and the Messiah. The verbal reason the Jews gave to the roman ruler was Jesus proclamation at being the king of the Jews but they killed him for far deeper reasons than that. Their hearts had been hardened and they would not accept Jesus as the Messiah and his truthful teaching and revealing the Pharisees and Sadducee were hypocrites AND most of all because HE OUTRIGHT TOLD THEM HE WAS GOD OR EQUAL TO GOD. Oh, how they hated him saying I AM and I and the Father are one.

It signified Jesus' coming as Israel's true king and would begin the countdown to his journey to the cross.
