So what’s happening here is Google is feeding headlines into a model with the instructions to generate a title of exactly 4 words.

Every example is 4 words.

Why they think 4 words is enough to communicate meaningfully, I do not know. The other thing is whether novel they’re shoving into their products for free is awful, hence the making things up and not knowing in the context of a video game exploit is not the same as the general use of the word.
