They were probably talking about updating world.
If you type emerge -uD world it will check to see if there are newer version of everything on your system, get the ones that are new, and compile them.
So if you waited long enough between updating world, you probably would end up recompiling the entire system.
If you keep your system up to date, there will be maybe 10 things to compile when you update world.
On the same note, if your system was really out of date and you update one program and told it to do deep dependancy checking (the -D) then it might update almost all of the system.
