It has a different connotation. For example, almost no CS researchers or professors are "famous" in the traditional sense. Yeah, definitely a few here on HN, but not outside their profession, and certainly not to the general public. Even if you look at "Fortune 500 executives", outside of a small subset of CEOs, they're not "famous."

And those researchers would publish papers, which would have turned up in their searches.

Do you think there are Fortune 500 executives that have managed to remain so obscure that somebody who knows their name and life until age 23 would be unable to find out that they held the position?

What's an executive? C-level? Some places everyone is a vice president, right?

It occurs to me that the Fortune 500 is not the S&P 500, so I would question whether information about them is necessarily even as accessible as with a public company.
