That's the odds if a person touched one surface every day. Touching the same surface twice would not double the risk, but touching two distinct surfaces would. Most people touch a lot more than one surface per day.
Note the paper suggest the real rate could be lower. For instance, a 10^-5 risk per contact would mean <0.4% risk for 365 contacts.
