Difference between equation from documentation and equation used inside Orekit (Documentation issue)

I noticed a non homogenous equation in the NumericalPropagator's javadoc concerning the public static double[][] tolerances(double dP,Orbit orbit, OrbitType type) method's description. Hence i checked the code which seems to use the right equation (homegenous + identical to what i've found on my own).

Documentation : V² r |dV| = mu |dr|

Code: V r² |dV| = mu |dr|
