Yes, ram cost is in fact a typo - actual price is 10x lower. Sorry about that.
When you push your application to dotCloud, it's broken down into services. For example python frontend, nodejs worker, mysql: that's 3 services.
Each service starts with a certain amount of capacity. Those are soft limits: you get a guaranteed minimum, but you'll probably get more, most of the time. It's most definitely not like shared hosting in that regard.
Each service can then be scaled individually, by allocating more concurrent processes, ram or disk. Specific costs are listed in the FAQ.
