It's more of a flexibility thing and they are right that most of the great pass rushers have it.
It is where the lower half of the body can keep the entire body moving in a forward motion even when the top half of the body is getting pushed back. Throw in long arms with this trait and you have a potential monster like DT was.
But there are many good to great players who use more power, technique and motor (Tamba Hali) to achieve near the same results. It is just harder to achieve without that natural ability to bend.
