UPDATE: Oklahoma is now battling two tornadoes - one has hit 50 mph while the other has topped 100 mph: http://on.rt.com/2unzls
I hope these don't grow into what the others did, but I'm seeing "Oklahoma City" and "St Louis" tweets, so we are talking about some pretty populated areas.

when they say the tornado is 100mph, does that mean that's the strength the the winds, or the tornado is actually traveling at 100mph?

Strength of the wind. Tornadoes rarely rarely rarely ever top 60 mph. Usually, its like 20-30 mph.
