I think you are right. The word "solely" means that the github user ONLY 
acquires a right to reproduce on Github (but not anywhere else, as per 
the Github license).

So even though another license might allow reproduction elsewhere, the 
Github license only grants it (enforces it) for the specific Github 
platform you are on (Github).
