Ever heard of a logarithm? If you haven't, you just reinvented it.
Also, your math is wrong: log base 2 of 200,000 is ~18
You did 200k years. You need to do 200k years as seconds (the 6.311e12 they mentioned). Their math is right.
Not sure why you're acting like they claimed to invent the logarithm, either...
