This is totally incorrect, and has been debunked many time.
"The license granted herein" is the patent grant, because that language occurs in the patent grant. The BSD license is totally separate.
This has been stated, repeatedly, by representatives of Facebook and independent lawyers; the language is standard and unambiguous. They even answered it in a FAQ here[0]:

A: No.
