Is this the length of the vehicle? How does it effect traffic dynamics?

Should be in the network file, not the plans/population file. Yes, this is the length that one vehicle with one passengerCarEquivalent consumes. Note that storageCapacityFactor in qsim config group does the same thing. The calculation is in QueueWithBuffer, the code (which is a bit more involved for traffic flow/fundamental diagram reasons) starts with
// first guess at storageCapacity:
storageCapacity = this.length * this.effectiveNumberOfLanes / context.effectiveCellSize * context.qsimConfig.getStorageCapFactor() ;
As you see, effectiveCellSize and storageCapacityFactory are just multiplied.
Cheers!
