This is nonsense. Maddux could pitch 200+ innings because he was, by a completely absurd margin, the most pitch-efficient pitcher in modern history.

When you walk no one, and get people out on one, two or three pitches in a lot of at bats, you can pitch a lot of innings because you aren't throwing many pitches. I mean, we're talking about a guy who threw a complete game with only 76 pitches. You don't need amazing stamina for that.
