They mention it because there's a longer distance self driving semi-truck record, but it wasn't hauling anything.

I imagine the point is that it hauled a refrigerated fragile load, and it arrived unscathed.

No single driver can make that time, but a two person team can make coast to coast in 3days in decent weather. The issue with all these autonomous vehicles is that this country regularly has some nasty weather.
