On Prussian Blue’s Wikipedia page it says: “Like most high-chroma pigments, Prussian blue cannot be accurately displayed on a computer display.”

What exactly does this mean, and what is it specifically about the pigment that causes this

Screens emit too much light to properly showcase the texture and depth of Prussian blue.

Unfortunately, your computer screen is not coated with the special pigment. This means that it cannot correctly display fluorescent colors, because it outputs in RGB (Red, Green, Blue) which cannot clearly represent the hue and brightness that the human eye perceives when examining a fluorescent material.And that’s why fluorescent colors do not appear accurately on computer screens.
