Anil's on the Chrome team, they don't control search results. I think they are talking about increasing the address bar's preference to search instead of giving you local results (history and bookmarks). They could also be talking about specific queries, e.g. with Chrome's default settings, the address bar can answer some queries like weather or calculator using search without having to press Enter.
