That's a major difference to what I'm seeing, and I don't get why the
difference is so huge.

Just now:1000 probes, area North-Central, A record google.us against 8.8.8.8:

Above 90% of ther answers are SERVFAIL (the rest probably is not in
yet, or timeout).
https://atlas.ripe.net/measurements/30484987/#probes

Only 12 (twelve) probes returned NOERROR.
