¿Que significa las palabras "echando leches" en una frase como, "Salió a la casa corriendo, echando leches"?

Sí, como dice el DRAE:

echando leches

1. loc. adv. vulg. Muy deprisa.

También:

a toda leche

1. loc. adv. vulg. A toda velocidad. Vino a toda leche.


Spain slang (velocidad)

iba a toda leche — I was going flat out informal
