Look for facts first.

Depends entirely on which "facts" one chooses(tens of site on the internet saying different things), and which type IXD boat we're talking about. The range you listed matches quite well the range of a type IX/D1-uboat in kilometers, while that of a type IX/D2 was supposedly considerably longer, over 30,000 nm.

I really don`t want start a "fight" here but site which exist (at least should be) since 1995 and has SO EXACT and COMPREHENSIVE information would definately not post a BS on basic facts, don`t you think?

Edit:

I also looked here:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/German_Type_VII_submarine

values are pretty much the same (info on VIIC), biggest difference is in range 8190 (wiki) vs 8500(uboat).
