Yes it means youcan ignore them .......
Although you forgot the wxtrabrake dust created if slowing from 60, also additional friction from the tyres (apparently these issues are consudered)

The speed limits tend to be applied in response to local pollution, especially where major roads come close to populated areas and no matter what speed I drive at in my EV it's still zero emissions.
Brake pad particulates are much lower on EV's as a majority of the time they use regen braking. Tyre wear is slightly higher but nowhere near as much as the anti-EV brigade claim. After almost 23,000 miles we're still on the original tyres and they still have a long way to go. For comparison my Mercedes C class would chew it's way through a set of rear tyres every 7-10k!
