> On overhead signs on highways Icon 3 means "forward".

No it doesn't -- it means "pass under this sign", in other words,
it points "down" to the section of road you are to use.

However, as I and someone else noted, in France it is used to mean
"forward" in situations where passing under the sign or not doing
so are not applicable.
