The article is not really about PIN numbers.  The analysis is about passwords.  In Australia and other places banks give you a PIN.  I don't think you get to change it and even if you did, most people wouldn't.  In Australia you get given a four number PIN, in another country I've lived it's 5.  Most of the analysis is based on people choosing a password/PIN so it's just not relevant.
