They allow the driver to ascertain whether the wheels are rotating.  Explained at Jalopnik. (They are not the same as the loose wheel nut indicators)

    I hadn't noticed these before (nor the loose wheel nut indicators), but will certainly be looking for them now!

    I hadn't noticed them either but have seen the loose lug nut pointers.
