This is undoubtedly a move to have more buying power against jackasshole Walmart. I would think this would make them bigger than Target, but I guess not (they are probably counting Mervyn's and the other non-Target things Target owns).

As far as Target is concerned, they have a lot of different stores, but changed from Dayton Hudson to Target as a corporate name in 2000. Off the top of my head I can remember Mervyn's, Dayton Hudson, Marshall Field's, and some catalog company are all under Target.
