I usually don't count explanatory comments like this against the line length limit (when a line exceeds some arbitrary limit, I don't mind if the part exceeding is purely explanatory or boiler-plate that would just introduce more noise if split over several lines -- this example, but also things like `throws` clauses).  I've shortened the comment.
