Is Queen Elizabeth married? If so, the fact that he is married to the queen... does that make him the King???

Queen Elizabeth is married to Prince Phillip. He is the Queen's Consort, not the King.

Yes, she is married to Philip Mountbatten the son of Prince Andrew of Greece (and the closest living relative to the Russian Romanov dynasty). He is the consort to the Queen and was given the title Duke of Edinburgh, but he is not the King.
This is because Elizabeth's father, George VI, left no male heirs so the Crown passed to her, his eldest daughter. In Royal lineage the King is senior to a Queen and since Prince Philip of Greece is not a direct descendent of the British line he cannot take the title King as he only married into it (even though they are distantly related).
When Elizabeth dies the Crown will pass to Prince Charles and it is possible that his wife, Camilla, could have the title Queen. But this would probably be unpopular and she herself has stated that she will just remain Duchess of Cornwall, consort to the King.

The Queen and Prince Philip have been married for 60 years. They have children. How can anyone not know she's married?

No. He would have to be crowned king first. There is a coronation ceremony where a crown is actually placed on his head. He was never crowned, so he continues to be Prince Phillip. Guess Elizabeth didn't want the competition.
