I don't understand what you mean by this being a genetic map, this seems like an unrelated concept: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gene_mapping https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gene_mapping This article is definitely about the potential to sequence people's genomes for $100. Part of the confusion may be that a process called mapping is a necessary step to figure out where each of the hundreds of millions of ~200 nucleotide reads for a genome came from - you "map" them back to the human reference genome for comparison.
