Well... sorta. ;^) In this case (from what I've gleaned) you're not hacking the "website" you're hacking a single user of the website. It's still a breach but a much, much less severe breach. All password-based systems can eventually be cracked, ALL of them. The idea is just to make it difficult enough not to be worth the bother and take long enough to were suggested (or forced) regular password changes would invalidate the results.
