Setting thrust by 60/70/80 kias

Is the reason why we set thrust by 60/70/80 kias (depending on aircraft type) due to performance? Is this what our take off distances are predicated on? For example, if we set the thrust after 60/70/80 then we will require a longer takeoff distance. Or is there another reason for setting the thrust by these speeds?
