OSRM derives speeds and durations from OpenStreetMap tags such as
`highway=`, `maxspeed=`, traffic signals, road width, number of lanes, etc.

You can check the profiles for details:

https://github.com/Project-OSRM/osrm-backend/tree/master/profiles

Here's the demo server's debug map showing derived speeds:

http://map.project-osrm.org/debug/#13/37.7960/-122.4536

You will need historic or real-time traffic data for accurate ETAs
especially in congested areas such as cities; OSRM has a traffic feature
for that:

Some hosted services provide real-time and historic traffic integration
such as Mapbox (disclaimer: I'm with Mapbox):
