Short answer
The example in link works without problems. Comparing the code of the example with that of the question, that of the question is incomplete.
Code
From the link quoted above, specific to the example in the File-open dialogs section, the following code was taken, which was tested a few moments ago, following the indications of the page in question.
Code.gs
/**
* Creates a custom menu in Google Sheets when the spreadsheet opens.
*/
function onOpen() {
SpreadsheetApp.getUi().createMenu('Picker')
.addItem('Start', 'showPicker')
.addToUi();
}

* Displays an HTML-service dialog in Google Sheets that contains client-side
* JavaScript code for the Google Picker API.
*/
function showPicker() {
var html = HtmlService.createHtmlOutputFromFile('Picker.html')
.setWidth(600)
.setHeight(425)
.setSandboxMode(HtmlService.SandboxMode.IFRAME);
SpreadsheetApp.getUi().showModalDialog(html, 'Select a file');
}
