That's a typo. The real data is in the quote cfg83 provided.

I realize that. But the question still stands.

If it allows a smaller shot of fuel at the same injection pressures because of better burning, would it allow a lower pressure injector to achieve the same lean burn that a high pressure inejctor achieves without the plug?

While this would not give greater economy overall, it might allow for greater durability and lower upfront costs for ultra lean-burn engines.
