The manpage says you still need to configure a kernel to use it ... I cannot confirm whether that's still true, or if that's changed significantly. It's been a while, but IIRC it will be something like: ipfw add pipe 1 ip from any to any via em0 ipfw pipe 1 config bw 3Mbit/s YMMV. I had this working sometime in the last decade on FBSD 4, up through about FBSD 7 or 2010 (whichever was later). It might be worth mentioning that plenty of voices Out There have moved on to recommending PF instead of IPFW. Hopefully this will at least point you in the somewhat correct direction.
