Not true as it's impossible to measure such a thing. But it makes sense that these numbers are what they are because ipv4 addresses are expensive.

The article explains exactly what it did measure and what this does not mean:

Every number in this post describes attacker activity reaching GreyNoise sensors, not confirmed impact on third-party environments.
