You raise a very good question. Unlike C14 dating, where the halflife is independent of environmental conditions, DNA is a chemical molecule, whose decomposition is a chemical reaction, dependent on exposure to time, temperature, pressure, light, and chemistry of the environment.
I was hoping the article would explain why the conditions would be so favorable to make it possible.
