A quote from the article:
For average applications a monitor with sRGB colour space is sufficient. If you are working with photos made by more luxurious digital cameras or image processing for other purposes than online publication, a monitor with a wider gamut is no unnecessary luxury. We tested five models with wqhd-resolution.

While monitor manufacturers like to play with the 'millions of colours' that modern monitors can display, a regular model can only display a fraction of the colours that the human eye can see. This is clear when looking at a CIE-diagram - this rounded triangle shows the range of colours that you can perceive. If you lay an sRGB-triangle over this, you can clearly see that big parts are outside of this triangle.
