Does a Sherriff Sale potentially clear the mortgage as does a tax sale?

Unless I am mistaken, the answer is no -- what is up for auction is the equity, if any, the person has in the property.  As the Conditions of sale state:

"The purchaser to assume responsibility for all mortgages, charges, liens, outstanding taxes, and other encumbrances."

Parenthetically speaking, I'm not smart enough to understand the appeal of a Sherriff's sale.
