To increase area of contact and decrease pressure on ground.
Remember that these trucks carry heavy loads. If they have few tires, the pressure will be much on those few tires and on the ground but with so many tires, the pressure is distributed and thus, less on the ground.

I drive 18 wheeler, I would know.

Generally speaking, the Heavier the Load, the More the Number of Tyres.

It’s to distribute the load
From the nature of the Truck, it seems it’s used to convey mined minerals and these things are very very very heavy, take for example lead and Tin
