Just a guess, but I think these study results apply more to those who are just diagnosed or marginally symptomatic.

I would hope that it is the exercise in general that helps, not just walking. I am under the impression that vigorous exercise of any sort is proving to be neuro-protective - leaving the door open for those of us with more advanced symptoms to still take advantage of the benefits of exercise.
