...AFAIK the LICENSE.txt is added by the packaging script to every module and theme hosted in d.o and it is the generic GNU General Public License. The page you link to also says that too (though perhaps not very clearly):

4.1 Ensure the repository does not contain a ‘LICENSE.txt’ file.
Do not include a LICENSE.txt file in your repository. Drupal.org will add the appropriate version automatically during packaging.

It is the project repository that should not contain a LICENSE.txt file - not the final packaged module file.
