    No, it says

    100 to 1,000 times higher than the background extinction rate

    both in the general intro and in the “Extinction rate” section, and

    10 to 100 times higher than in any of the previous mass extinctions in the history of Earth

    in the “Extinction rate” section (both verbatim quotes from its first sentence).
