That was exaggeration for effect. Not even in the 747 or 380 do you see 11 abreast. (JAL tried it as a short-lived experiment once, nobody liked it, surprise surprise).

It’s an available option that Airbus sells for the A380 (3-5-3 in economy), but thankfully no airlines currently use it that I know of. To my knowledge, Boeing has never considered it.
