Looks like it is not so much of a miracle, according to engadget's follow-up here. The iPod was not the lifesaver. It was the soldier's body armour. He did not even feel the bullet until he went looking for his iPod. :(

From engadget "iPod takes bullet for soldier":
Kevin Garrad of the 3rd Infantry Division looks to have gotten a little assistance from an unexpected source while on a street patrol in Iraq recently, when the iPod in his pocket got in the path of a bullet fired at close range, slowing it down enough that it didn't pierce his body armor.
So there is another reason for iPods to be around!
