I can only assume they're putting in layers. It's not just Netflix, it's also the cost of your internet, of running your TV, of your AC while at home, of your lights, etc... maybe even the footprint of your food. Maybe the cost of any AI upscaling or framerate generation, if Netflix does that.
They may have looked at everything you might use in that 30 min, then compared it to the rate at an arbitrary car's fuel efficiency. Technically true statistics are very easy to deceive people with, especially if most people don't know how to read them.
Assuming ofc, they didn't just make the shit up, too.
