Well that's the fact Google Chrome holds the most vulnerable browser but one of the fastest to fix and deploy patches on time and having good security built in.

That, and the fact that Google pays people to find them.

I am also willing to bet a lot of money that Firefox has the second most detected vulnerabilities, because it's open source.
