I think you're misunderstanding. It's not that it ends at 11:54. It's that we stand at 11:54, with the end of the world being midnight.
Think of it this way: Inmates on death row of often executed at midnight. They're saying mankind is that inmate, close to death. We've been holding at 11:55 for so long, but now, the world has taken a step back from that death, to 11:54. Instead of 5 minutes to that deadline, we have 6 minutes until the deadline.

The opening lines of the article, where the thread title come from, are a bit misleading: it's not the first time it's been set back, only the first time that it's been by ONE MINUTE.Now the trouble about trying to make yourself stupider than you really are is that you very often succeed.
