My mistake: I posted the wrong link. It's:
Speed vs. MPG charts (post 'em if you got 'em) - Page 13 - Fuel Economy, Hypermiling, EcoModding News and Forum - EcoModder.com

My interpretation of that sentence anyway is that lowest speed in highest gear yields optimal FE. And the VW Golf graph below it indicate the same concept. I have a non-hybrid, so wouldn't that be true for me, too...lowest speed in highest gear gives best FE?

You're not misinterpreting it at all. With the exception of conditions where cruising just above top gear isn't possible because of hills (PaleMelanesian's post, above).
