> Hence 60fps goal.

Is that for embedded video playback? Whatelse could it apply to? Any idea?

Wild guess: Rendering live web pages (html+js+css, with animations and scrolling) at 60 frames per second.

As stated in nearby comments, it's an in-joke. There's no "goal".

The FPS count is generally with regards to scrolling and built in animation / transition rendering.
