"gas" does not mean fast in this sense. I think you've got into the proverbs here.
Example: "give it gas" is what you say when driving a car, that it should go faster.
I could also say, "give it a go" or "step on it", "give it juice".
Ich könnte auch sagen, "gib mal Stoff" oder "drück auf die Tube", "gib Saft alter"
All three mean exactly the same thing.
Here it says gas, juice, dope and tube and they all stand for fast.
Or simply, go faster.
