That is correct. Your error page can't be a .cfm page. If it could, it could in turn generate an error. This is basically a leftover from the old days of CF - presumably, early versions would have sent the error in your error handler to your error handler, and so on. You can use CFML code to deal with compile-time errors and run-time exceptions via the site-wide error handler (which can be a .cfm page). You can also use CFML code to deal with run-time exceptions using TYPE="EXCEPTION" in your CFERROR tag and pointing to a .cfm page. Finally, you can use CFML code to deal with run-time exceptions using the onError event handler in Application.cfc or using exception handling within your code.
