Gauss is a measure of magnetic strength, or more specifically, of the magnetic flux at the measured point. It does not indicate mechanical force, and something must interact with the magnetic field to generate force. BL is a measure that includes the voice coil interaction, so it describes motor strength rather than just magnet strength.
