No, it doesn't, can't and couldn't possibly ;)

That rule was probably meant to have a 'keep state' option.

On 'pass in keep state' rules, the 'queue' option is valid and affects
how outgoing replies related to those connections are queued on the same
interface (or how incoming packets are queued going out on another
interface, when forwarded).
