If you don't understand the study itself or in general if you're interested in it, it's always a good idea to also read a good news report on it; see this and also this. They found carrot intake rather than beta-carotene, the focus of prior studies, has this association and figure 6 was just to show that they don't have much data on daily intake of a carrot or more.
Jeez, that's crazy... That's an insanely high effectiveness, but it does seem like there's something behind it. Guess I'm going to buy more carrots
