If the computer used for this is also running "ntpd" the computer's
clock is disciplined.  How well depends on what ntpd is using as a
reference clock.   Assuming that some reasonable reference clock is
being used he could in theory trace the measured frequency  to GPS.
But the software details are not published on the site.
