They were smart enough to include verbiage that 10G did not mean 10Gbps on their website. I don't work for Comcast so I'm not sure of their current infrastructure. The company I do work for (charter) already has some infrastructure in place to facilitate those speeds but it's not being offered yet. It's currently a giant project all cable companies are working on that likely will only be available in major metro areas at first.

You have to dig to find that verbiage. Their homepage is plastered with the phrase 10G and no note that it is meaningless.
