This tool does not delete dimensions from screen, it deletes absolutely all existing dimensions from active document (on screen or out of screen, this does not matter).
You can check it out.
And I think the word Delete is more appropriate in this context.
"Clear" is closer to "cleaning" or also "without noise". For example "Clear measure".
Clear all dimensions from the screen -> Delete all dimensions from active document.
Clear All -> Delete All
Proposal: Rename 'Measure → Clear All' to 'Measure → Delete All'

Re: Proposal: Rename 'Measure → Clear All' to 'Measure → Delete All'
I am in favor of the rename, using the word "delete" might cause a user to pause a moment longer before choosing what is clearly a destructive operation. I don't think this is a critical thing, but a small improvement.

Draft Part measurements are not document objects, they are added to the active 3D view. They are temporary. And using Part_Measure_Clear_All will only clear the active 3D view. You can verify this behavior by opening several 3D views for the same document with Std_ViewCreate.
This:
"Clear all dimensions from the active 3D view"
Or this:
"Delete all dimensions from the active 3D view"
Would both be OK IMO.
Note that there are two Draft Part measurement related Std commands:
View_Measure_Clear_All
View_Measure_Toggle_All
This:
"Clear all dimensions from the active 3D view"
Or this:
"Delete all dimensions from the active 3D view"
Would both be OK IMO.

View_Measure_Clear_All
