He means that if waters rose globally to the height of Mt. Everest than the atmosphere would have rearranged itself so that pressure at the 'new' sea level would have been the same as at the 'old' sea level. Basically the problem is the following: if we consider for the sake of simplicity the Earth to be spherical and add to the Earth a spherical layer of mass (water) 5 miles high and suppose that the volume of the atmosphere stays constant (no ejection to space) what will be the variation of atmospherical pressure at the sea level?
Speaking of water mixing and fish survival during the Flood. Even if we consider that the salt water layer is ideally below the fresh water level with a transitional area being sufficiently narrow and that the salt water fish manage to navigate there in time there's still a pressure factor. 5 additional miles of water would have caused major variations in pressure that would have killed lots of kinds of fish in the underlying layer.
Though it's in fact absurd that such nonsence is even being discussed in our times.
