The GIF is a screenshot of a web page written 6 years ago by a Jim Collier, purporting to give a top-level overview of vxworks.

Are you asking whether or not VxWorks supports threads? Are you asking if tasks and threads are interchangeable / good enough to be interchangeable?
Not specifically, no.

I was asking if the overview summary of vxworks written by Jim Collier is still correct, six years after he wrote it. Or perhaps it wasn't correct in March of 2004 when it was written.
