I like Jimi Hendrix, I feel uncomfortable with him being the number one guitar of all time. If you say he was the number one guitar player of Rock than that is different.
Jimi Hendrix brings all he knew into his personal style. There is Buddy Guy and Wes Montegomery and a bunch of others rolled up into his musical vision. His genius was natural, not something one can achieve through guitar lessons or imitating another guitar player, etc. There is a lot a different things going on in one song. I think one little phrase in one of his songs could be a whole style of playing guitar.
