While the traffic doesn't look too fast in the video(at least for me it isn't), from the perspective of the officers, I can see their concern. Maybe they are not cyclists' themselves and understand what a cyclist has to do, to stay safe sometimes.
Using Google maps, I did find a 40 mph road sign in an area similar to were the cyclist was riding.
