From the MQ API Reference:
"This is a period of time expressed in tenths of a second, set by the application that puts the message. The message becomes eligible to be discarded if it has not been removed from the destination queue before this period of time elapses."
That means that it is the total amount of time the message has to get to its destination, and the receiving program has to retrieve it.
It really specifies the Elapsed time that a message has to live. It is NOT the expiration date and time.
