Those lock out the higher gears.
 
So, say you put it in 3 - it will not use 4th and 5th gear. Say you are towing and climbing a steep hill, so you don't want it to shift to 4th and lug the engine.
 
4 is actually not Drive, because it locks out overdrive (5th on 09 and prior and 5+6th on the new ones).

That's basically how it works, as far as I can tell.
