It would be trivially true if Godel was talking about propositional logic (proof size is polinomially bounded by definition of NP).
I don't know if that's true for first order logic (it's not as obvious to me as the author seems to imply) but even in that case it would be a non-trivial connection, so I believe it's a stretch to say that this was about P and NP.
