To quote a statement later in the article, which qualifies your quote: "We surmise that today's top programs play consistently at a 2500-2600 level of chess quality. The difference is that they instantly and mercilessly punish every human mistake and almost never let a winning position slip. This near-elimination of the margin for error pushes their practical performance up toward the 2800 level."
