But he wasn't out-cycling anyone, Le Tour is a series of short (by comparison to a full day of riding) one day races that happen to change location each day, not a single race (supported or not). This Alt Tour thing would have to be compared to unsupported ultracycling events, where everybody is proper bonkers and this performance wouldn't stand out much. And compared to what happens at supported ultracycling, well, the RAAM is yet another different world entirely.
