I think you get this from the MySQL manual, I suppose? I have seen this before.
The chown command simply changes the owner and group of a list of files. Change of access permission is done using chmod instead.
First command: user root, group mysql
Second command: user mysql, group mysql
-R is recursive. That is, apply this to each and every file and directory underneath.
