That is kind of misleading statement. What quantum computers change is not how many operations per second you could do, but how many operations you need to factor large numbers.
I believe that Bremermann's limit should also apply to quantum computers, but you are right in that example given for breaking cryptography is way off if you allow quantum computers.
