That number is just a little bit of sensationalist journalism, intentional or not. It is reasonable to assume that this is a very manual process right now so that things can be changed easily. Dna sequencing cost $2.4m in the early 90s using the Sanger Sequencing method but today it costs $100 (using a different but as accurate method) because of automation.
