I think that is what everyone around here is getting in such a fizz about, denying it, calling the story fake, and then writing self-reassuring stories of how Bitcoin would bounce right back up even if Satoshi were to dump his stash. etc etc.

Now that his anonymity is gone, he may now be forced or pressurised to draw upon his BTC. Bitcoiners don't want cold storage Bitcoin going to market in search of FIAT, they want FIAT going to market in search of hoarded Bitcoin.
