The theoretical maximum efficiency for solar panels is ~33% total energy conversion. So I assume what they mean here is that they achieved 130% of 33% =~43% total energy conversion, which doesn't break any laws of physics. That said, I read the article and it's very unclear. They talk about 130% quantum efficiency but I have no idea what that might mean.
