I thought its not "their calendar ending".
I think they have multiple cyclic calendars and all of them will hit "0" (as in start new) at the same time in 2012 for the first time ever.
as the mayans, like many other cultures, attributed magical and disastrous powers to the number 0 (0 as in nothingness, end, rebirth or stuff like that), they created all those calendars in order to always have some "continuity" of life and prevent time/earth/life to stop all at once..
only cause someone back then was afraid of the number 0, ArtX shouldnt go crazy.
Read the book "history of 0" (i think). its quite interesting.
