Yes, that means that he takes full responsibility for a mistake, and it wasn't due to other staff, equipment, unforeseen events etc...

Responsibility without consequence is meaningless.

The parent comment just described the meaning. It's not meaningless.

There is consequence you may not consider. This company may not make it making the CEOs efforts worthless. I suspect many companies will not make it in this cycle.

What does this mean to him personally though? What are the consequences he faces personally? Lowered salary? Stock taken back? Fired?

You can be responsible for something even if you don't have to face any consequences.
