This patch, called the South Atlantic Anomaly, sits between Africa and South America. Over the last 50 years, it has grown and moved farther west at a rate of roughly 12 miles per hour.

That's only 5.475 million miles.

Gotta be a typo. Probably 12 miles per year.

Yeah, I noticed that data seemed way off too. Probably meant 12 miles per year.

Yes, that’s what cracked me up too. I commented at the site about it. Science!
