Android 5.1 Lollipop Update - May Receive It Next Month

The article says "The Android 5.1 Lollipop Maintenance Release will come to all the Nexus devices that are updated with the latest Lollipop version." Does this mean that those of us who have remained on KitKat 4.4.4 won't get this 5.1 maintenance release?
