From the linked document:
> Deutsche Telekom Mirai disruption in late November 2016. My hastily assembled initial TR069/64 payload only performed a 'route del default' [...]
AFAIK this is not what happened. Deutsche Telekom had one major incident on November 27th 2016, but that incident was caused by a denial of service attack [1]. Given that the routers in question don't even run Linux, 'route del default' is not really an option anyways, making the first claim of the story likely to be fabricated.
This seems to be a good fictitious story, but nothing else.
