Default stolen lap at LeMans 66??

I did start to read some part on the Ken Miles book from Dave Friedman. On the part about LeMans 1966 some points did surprise me as they were new to me.

Ken was ONE LAP AHEAD at the finish of the race!
“Passino sent Cowley down to the scorer and timer’s tower and told them we had mis-credited a lap on Ken’s car and to take a lap away from the car.”
They’ve stolen Ken a lap and the victory!

Do you’ve any details/facts on this????
