My understanding is that their work is more like "coupling" than "entanglement" (as the media describes entanglement). From the abstract of their arXiv article, it sounds like what they're looking at is the motion of the base pairs together. This is certainly pretty cool, but it's not quite the same as some of the other results on quantum entanglement where two particles are entangled and by observing one, you can infer the other, etc etc.
