The last sudo makes sure cat is run with root privileges but not the redirection of the output >. Reproduce:

(run as non-root user)

$ sudo echo "test" >/usr/share/keyrings/docker-archive-keyring.gpg 
bash: /usr/share/keyrings/docker-archive-keyring.gpg: Permission denied

# but this works
sudo sh -c 'echo "test" >/usr/share/keyrings/docker-archive-keyring.gpg'
