I do believe you are correct. It appears the author of the page got it rather wrong.
It wouldn't surprise me however if somebody did try something like that. During Vietnam a number of weapon fits were tried on M113s by the Australians including multiple .30 cals, .50 cals, and even one with an M134 borrowed from a Huey gunship. This last one didn't last very long as a viable option - it was apparently like firing 10 M60s all at the one location, and a complete and utter waste of ammo (but sooooo much fun!)
