I had to explain to my PM a few weeks ago what a VM was, she has been working in a java team for about 5 years, I don't expect her to write a multithreaded server, just have an appreciation of the very basics of the basics.
I think the most successful teams are the ones where the majority of people have a good understanding of the technology, it may be fairer to say that you can tell a successful team when the managers understand the technology.
In Google the PMs are expected to do some coding and that is probably why they are where they are.
