I think it is pretty accurate. However, just in case, do further research.

Well, this guy says with the intregrated graphics he can play Fallout 3 on medium settings. [Review] HP Dv6-6135dx - Hewlett Packard - Laptops & Notebooks
So based on that and the link tijo provided, I would say you can play it. You may get medium settings as the one user said, or at the very least you can drop to low settings to play it. -
Yeah the Can You Run It? site is a bit flawed when it comes to laptop specifications. It thought that my 4th gen mobile i7 overclocked all the way was inferior to a 1st gen desktop i5 clocked at 2.5GHz.

It's good enough to play fluently at medium settings and 720p resolution, no antialiasing (or try SMAA injection)...
Is my computer strong enough?
