As I understood it, they weren't quite done. They were at, say, 90%, and confident they could do the last 10% after holidays and before release.
But the CTO insisted on Death March-style hours, so the author told the CTO they were at 80%, and then doled out the milestones from 80% to 90% over the week his team was away.
Had he said "Uhh, hey boss, we're already at 90%", the CTO would have said "Great, then work 26/8 over Christmas to get to 100%!".
