No mention of length of books or number of words - just a blanket statement that no-one reading one book in one day could be gaining enjoyment or appreciating subtleties. Not to mention the little dig at their honesty, by choosing the word "claim".

"claim", "say", "state", "write" take your pick.
I don't doubt that people can read that fast. I explained above why I don't think that reading that fast can be satisfying. YMMV.
