The arguments to ColorFunction are scaled,  from the help documentation:

With the usual default setting  ColorFunctionScaling->True, all arguments supplied to  func are scaled to lie in the range 0 to 1.

Compare:

Plot3D[Sin[x + y], {x, 0, 3}, {y, 0, 3},
 ColorFunction -> (Hue[(Sin[3 #1 + 3 #2] + 1)/2] &)]
