The point of this messy and confusing map is to show that American ships would be slaughtered, when passing through the Mediterranean. The dotted lines are meant to show the extent to which Allied ships could travel and be within easy reach of repairs and reinforcements, and that's being very critical of the power of the Allied navies, which really could travel way further in all likelihood.

By trying to invade the Mediterranean, you're attacking the Allies' backyard. It is NOT going to be a walk in the park. You can't just sweep through it. Your navies can't just cruise through to give reinforcements to the Central Powers. You'll have to fight for every mile of ocean against a large amount of ships whilst being harangued by planes from airfields across Africa and France and Malta and yadda yadda.
