First of all, have a look at:
http://www.accordmarketing.com/tid/articles/uncovering-google-pagerank.html
To refer to some of your paragraphs:
-Google update backlinks once in X days so the jump from 0 to 3 is not
surprising. Have you looked at which sites point to your site? How many of
them? How authoritative?
-I think Google results are affected by both phrase match and PR. There is a
certain weighting they will not publish, I guess...
-To dominate keyphrases, use metatags, page title and high-valued elements
like h1 and h2.
-Plural is being transformed to singular. Always! So don't bother.
