Permutations with fixed points

A000166 (permutations with no fixed points) contains the following
formula:  "The termwise sum of this sequence and A003048 gives the
factorial numbers".  A003048 has an equivalent formula.

I do not understand how that formula works.  Should it refer to A002467
instead?
