Biggest ever?

I keep seeing this story referred to as the "biggest ever online heist." Does anybody actually know who decided it was the "biggest ever," and what they're comparing it to?

I'm not sure, but my gut reaction is that banks have been taken for more than 1.2mil before. Anybody know if that's true?
