I thought Chrome allocated a unique identifier to each browser install anyway meaning that changing this setting still allows them to track you regardless.
Edit: Turns out that the Unique Id is an install-only thing and is gone after the first update [1] (look at "Identifiers in Chrome" section) but it appears they can conduct "Field Trials" without your knowledge (certainly appears to be without your knowledge from what I can see)
Edit 2: removed pointless text
