No, not at all. Google is driven by many signals that SEOs try to optimize on, but the methodology is still the same. Top-ranking sites have high-quality sites linking to them, good content, and are supposed to not look spammy (though that's debatable). I don't know how this engine ranks but I assume it's a similar system, they're just chopping a good portion of the results out. For what you said to be true, the top 10K/100K/1M rankings would have to be there entirely due to intervention from an SEO, and that's just not the case. The Wikipedia's of the world have enough going for them that they don't need SEO, so they'll always show up in Google, and never in this engine.
