"{\colortbl;...}" means "this is the color table".
"red255\green0\blue0" means mix a RGB color with 255 red, 0 green, and
0 blue (255 is maximum intensity).
colors are specified one after another with a semicolon after each color.
"\cf1" means "pick the first color, "\cf2" means "pick the second color"
BTW: You could also type
coeflabels(weight "\cf1 weight" mpg "\cf2 mpg")
(that is, you can omit the curly braces; however, the curly braces are
needed for the color table).
