In Google the road is listed as a major highway.
Are you interpreting this data from Google's visual render or
extracting it from their database?

It's coming from their database. Google does expose a classification
through the v3 API. My map does consider the road types "arterial" and
"highway" as major and "local" as minor. For OSM data unclassified and
higher is considered major.

I think that calling a road tagged as highway=unclassified a "major road" is an overstatement. So, you feel that any road which isn't classified as highway=residential, highway=service, or highway=track is a major road?
