Meaning if I have a 64gb device but my photos are taking up more than 64gb on iCloud my pictures will not all be synced to my device right?
If you want to have your pictures to be stored in full quality on your iPhone, that’s exactly what it means.

No, don’t worry. What will happen is that your iPhone will warn you about running out of space on its own storage.
It won’t touch the iCloud storage unless you, as the user, remove the picture there.

It only removes the photo on your phone, it won’t touch iCloud where the original quality photo is stored.
