If it was IPv6, I'd assume the routing rule on their blog contained IPv6 addreses, not IPv4 addresses, even if the blog faked the IP addresses.

Perhaps then you aren't aware that IPv6 stacks can reach IPv4 addresses, nor that IPv6 packets are a popular way to compromise systems that support both IPv6 and IPv4, because the IPv6 stacks are not as well hardened.
