I'm not ready to call BS on this, but I'm deeply skeptical of the general language they're using. They might have iteratively gotten particular recognition to do what they say, but I don't think they've gotten recognition in general.

I plugged the first 4 examples at http://nicholas.carlini.com/code/audio_adversarial_examples/ into Google Docs' own Voice typing, and got:

1: At the yard course Eustis

2: Set the Artic course Eustis

3: (nothing, it's an operatic wall of sound)

4: (nothing, it's an operatic wall of sound)

Given that Nick is one of the world's experts on adversarial examples against NN, and given that he already has another paper attacking voice recognition systems, i'd hold off before calling this work "BS"
