The documentation is correct, the netmask in that last line is
255.0.0.0. The example is for a VPN with 4 sites, each has a 10.x.0.0/16
out of the 10.0.0.0/8 range. By setting the netmask on the VPN interface
to 255.0.0.0, all packets for 10.0.0.0/8 are automatically being routed
to the VPN interface.
