It sounds like he's saying his students were wrong to express disbelief over the counter intuitive findings of a study because the statistics were such that it left no option but to accept the results. Which is arrogant and wrong. Studies can be faulty or fail to replicate, statistics can be misapplied or fudged, future studies also contradict prior findings, etc.
Blind faith in the results of a study is not good science. If a study is counter intuitive, one should question it.
