It's about how many restaurants a chef "owns". I do find it odd as well (how about the head chefs for each restaurant, do they also get Michelin stars?), but this is how it works.

The restaurant itself gets the star rating. The executive chef will gain a lot of attention at a michelin rated restaurant, this is true for all staff. Also you have to keep in mind that executive chefs at michelin rated restaurants do not make as much money as you expect. Most of the ones in the Bay Area are sub $100k.

Figured I would also add that its a big deal for everyone who works there because it is as much about food as it is service. The service between a 1-star rated restaurant and most other unrated restaurants is night and day.
