Is there a specific radius beyond a service area?

Is there a specific radius Google recognizes beyond a service area listed with an SAB?

The service area that you choose for your business only affects the red highlighted area that is shown for your business on the map. It doesn’t affect anything else, such as where you rank.

Red highlighted area? Can you clarify (with a visual)?
