What It Suggests

That the second Terminator movie would be focused on Judgment Day - the day the machines rose and took over and everything went to Terminator-shaped hell.

The Truth

Actually, Judgment Day wouldn't have happened in this film even if the now-morally realigned Terminator and the Connor family hadn't managed to change the course of history (temporarily). The film is in fact set two years before Judgment Day was even supposed to happen and it ends up being reverted anyway.

The third Terminator film, called Rise of The Machines, should have been called Judgment Day, since the event actually does happen in that movie. But then it would have been one of those titles that gives away the plot and it would have ended up on another one of our lists.
