Is there some key combination that allows OS X to force quit all open applications at once?

Yes: Command + Control + Power button. As you force quit ALL open apps, the machine restarts.

Out of curiosity, why would you need to do this?

My younger brother is a graphic designer and uses a G5 PowerMac. He asked me this morning, but I did not have a clear answer, so I thought I would ask the experts - you guys

But just because you can doesn't mean you should. If every app is freezing, then it's not because those apps have crashed, but because some key operating system process has frozen.
