The 0.01% they talk about is TRAFFIC, not USERS. And it's bogus  
anyway. For instance, just the traffic through the AMS-IX is many  
times more than what they measured:

(Note that they use meaningless lying graphs = don't start at 0.)

At AMS-IX, native IPv6 traffic is now 0.3% on average, up from 0.1% a  
year or so ago. When I did some web bug measurements years ago my  
results where about 0.16% IPv6 users (1 in 666). Last year, Google got  
0.25%.
