Q:
What does From this point on the word "rock" means pressure. mean?
A:
It is a bit difficult to be sure of the full meaning without knowing the situation where you found this sentence.
“From this point on...” means from this time, from now on (“this point in time” means now).
A rock is something very hard. It is very hard to push against. It is very hard if it pushes against you. There is an English expression “to be between a rock and a hard place” which means to be in a difficult situation, and whichever way you turn you will have a problem.
So I think this may be the situation here.
