You're right, it's the free miles that are creating all the buzz. As a program, Flying Dutchman isn't terrible. KLM is one of the (very) few European FF programs which offer upgrades as rewards, and at a reasonable level. If you fly international business class, particularly within Europe, KLM will let you accrue mileage faster than most other programs.
