First of all, you are assuming that Google has indexed the entire Web.
This is not correct. No one search engine can cover all the web sites
on the web.

The way to check Google's PR set up is to look at a well ranked page.
Here is a great exapmle: when I type "Amazon" into Google, Amazon.com
comes up first. Yet, according to the PageRank bar on my Google
Toolbar, Amazon.com has a 0.

The Axandra newsletter from December 7th, 2004:
http://www.axandra.com/news/newsletter137.htm says:

"...It's very likely that the PageRank number that can be seen in the
Google Toolbar is mainly a marketing instrument for Google that
doesn't have much effect on the search results. Google seems to use an
internal PageRank value for its ranking algorithm and a public
PageRank value for the toolbar.

That would explain why many web pages with a high ranking on Google
have a low (toolbar) PageRank."

I stand by my statement that the PageRank is now irrelevant.
