You may not notice, but there are devices that can measure the distance that a car travels, even for a long distance, and with a super high precision.

Car manufacturers have such devices. I have seen a few.

I think they were saying the car software wouldn't add artificial distances to short trips, where it's more obvious. Not that the real world measurement is difficult or anything like that.
