Funnily enough, he actually writes ASCII '0', which is 0x30, not 0x00.
Plus, it'll only ever saturate the logical volume it's run on, and even then writes a maximum of about 5.5TB. You could do this faster, better, and more accurately with: dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda bs=4k
(Seriously though, don't run that. If you destroy your own system, it is completely and totally not my fault.)
