If you meant googolplex =
The number 10 raised to the power googol, written out as the numeral 1 followed by 10100 zeros.
If you meant Googleplex =
(GOOGLE comPLEX) Google's headquarters in Mountain View, CA. The name has two meanings: combining Google with the company complex and "googolplex," which is the number 1 to the power of googol (10googol).

I think you may mean googolplex.
It is related to a googol, which is 10^100 (a 1 with 100 zeros after it).
A googolplex is 10^googol, so that would be a 1 with a googol's worth of zeros (10 duotrignitillion zeros)

A google is 100 plex, which is 100 to the hundredth power. A google plex is a google to the googleth power. There is no real use for it. It is too large to represent anything in this universe. It is something the author of a book came up with for fun. I think the book's title is, "Fun With Numbers." He asked his young son what he should call this number. The boy came up with google.
