The improvement in FC he got is most probably due to other factors.

fast forward to 4:50

Well my usual practise is if i know i'm going to come to a stop, i'll put my gear to neutral and cruise to a stop. As long as the engine is running at a higher RPM, it will consume more fuel anyway. Its impossible that the engine is consuming zero fuel eventhough you've released the throttle. Don't forget, the engine is still running, it isn't turned off.

put your gear to neutral while your car is moving is not recommended

if you are driving AT car, this is not recommended as well because engaging to neutral gear while the car is moving can cause excessive wear to the gearbox
