So does that sign mean bicycles are supposed to be ridden by two people or that people are divided by bicycles?
No! The icon above the bicycle indicates where the bicyclist should ride, just like here.
We have the arrows on our sharrows to indicate lane position*, here it indicates you are to run over pedestrians!
* Sharrows mean any old thing you want them to mean- lane position, direction of travel, bicycles belong on this road, be alert for cyclists etc.
That pic could have been titled: "Bike advocates' German wet-dream."
