The XK120 was a sensation when launched in 1948. It was a huge success. Jaguar planned to sell it as a limited series model
but the demand was huge, and the car helped to improve the reputation of jaguar. On the racetrack the XK-series was successful, too.
The number in "XK120" stands for the topspeed in mph.
