That's not what they claim. Read what is written there more carefully. There's no claim that they can break encryption using a strong passphrase without a million years of time. They don't even claim they can do that for a PIN by bypassing secure element mitigations on ANY phone.
I'd certainly believe they have Android and iOS exploits allowing them to brute force PIN codes and passphrases at the rate supported by the hardware. Firmware-based throttling by the iPhone SEP could be bypassed by another exploit. Is there really any surprising about that?

Most Android phones have no throttling beyond the cost of on-device key derivation once an attacker controls the OS. Many Android including the Nexus 5X and 6P didn't implement true hardware-bound encryption and can even have the on-device aspect bypassed via a TEE exploit.
