Hm, here on my rpi3b+, with an attached usb disk I have to use this 
setting in loader.conf:

kern.cam.boot_delay="15000"

With the vfs.mountroot.timeout="xx" I end up in a shell because I'm not 
able to mount the partition in time. With the cam.boot_delay things are 
working fine.

Maybe this helps?
