(2) only seems to apply if you publish the fork yourself - "reproduce and distribute"
"reproduce and distribute the Software as part of your own software ("Your Software"), provided Your Software does not consist solely of the Software;"
This license seems to directly contradict GitHub's Terms of Service. It says:
> [...] you are hereby granted a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free copyright license to (1) use and copy the Software; and (2) reproduce and distribute the Software as part of your own software ("Your Software"), provided Your Software does not consist solely of the Software; and (3) modify the Software for your own internal use. Facebook reserves all rights not expressly granted to you in this license agreement.
Where as GitHub's Terms of Service state:
> By setting your repositories to be viewed publicly, you agree to allow others to view and fork your repositories.
It seems impossible for me to fork this software without violating Facebook's license. To fork it on GitHub would require that I make the repo public (meaning I would be distributing the Software as "My Software" even though it consists solely of the Software). And any commits I made to the forked repo would violate their license because I am only licensed to modify the Software for my own "internal use".
