I don't think you're reading the instructions quite right; it seems to
be two seperate commands:

$ cd <YOUR BUILD LOCATION>/modules/nvidia-kernel-1.0.4191
$ debian/rules binary_modules

Which is consistent with the normal way to build Debian packages.
You'll either need to do this step as root, or use fakeroot.
