systemd services are named "foo.service", and you do not need to specify the ".service" in almost any case.

They're referring to Debian's service(8) command.

  NAME
       service - run a System V init script
  SYNOPSIS
       service SCRIPT COMMAND [OPTIONS]

(the manpage wasn't updated, but the same command also supports systemd services nowadays)
