That seems to refer to adjustment from employment-based visas, not marriage-based visas like the K-1.

Rob--they have a max number of green cards per fiscal year based on employment. They reached the limit so it's over for fiscal year 2015. New year starts Oct 1. No limit on your marriage based green card.
