Scary stuff.

Google handles more internet traffic than all but two of the world's ISPs, according to data from network-security outfit Arbor Networks

Not as scary as the #1 and #2 ISPs you are referring to.
ISPs need to reach and support individual homes. Google only handles the packets in their datacenters, much cheaper than what ISPs accomplish.
