Remember he is not saying consistency is the only feature that make GoogleMaps #1

Honestly, I doubt it's got anything to do with it.

The reason Google Maps is #1 is that, at the time, it was far better than anything else. And nobody has offered an equally compelling leap since.

To move masses, you need equally massive advancements in usefulness (also, marketing).

You are not wrong.
