To clarify...it is a double pole 30 amp breaker...and it leads to the outlet in the laundry room and the washer and dryer are both plugged into what appears to be a standard 15-20 amp grounded outlet.
That is a split phase connection to the outlet. (very common) I doubt this meets code as it should be a 20 amp double breaker. I would change the breaker. As a minimum the wire should be #10 copper to use a 30 amp breaker. #10 wire is especially important if you will be plugging in a 30 amp RV.
Yes you can jump off and power the RV. But again I would change the breaker to 20 amp and install a 20 amp GFCI covered outdoor outlet and use an adapter. Just connect to 1 hot, 1 neutral, 1 ground. The second hot is for the washer only.
