Not impossible. Just highly improbable. A motivated individual could take the time, study real hard, and achieve that level of success. However, if he did do this, that success would be reproducable (to at least some level, say 2450 ELO). Since it does not appear to be reproducable in this case and people do have the easy ability to cheat with today's technology, it is must more probable (almost a certainty) that he cheated.
