Yes it does.  That's the significance of "As a special exception, the
copyright holders of this library give you permission to link this
library with independent modules to produce an executable, /regardless
of the license terms of these independent modules/"

I.E. you can make your independent module (program that uses Classpath
or OpenJDK) proprietary.
