It means to "get on with the job" and/or "hurry up".
It was a very common term when I was growing up. Where the fingers where to be pulled from was never revealed.

It means to do something quickly, to get on with it. As to what it actually means my understanding when the phrase was used when I was in the Army in the 1950s was that we should remove our fingers from our girlfriends' vaginas. But maybe that was just a guess.

BTW, it's usually singular - finger.
