I don't have hardware calibration tools and scored 4 on first try on Dell Trinitron 21" CRT beast with bright fluorescent currently glaring overhead. (For careful work I dim my office lights). I don't think it's really proof of a calibrated monitor. As long as colour differentiation can be distinguished this test can give you a zero, regardless whether your reds are true red, greens are truly green, etc.
... Except that if your monitor isn't calibrated, you might not be able to tell the difference between two hues. I used to a have an abstract desktop wallpaper I made from a photo on my Mitsubishi DP920 CRT, and thought it looked pretty good... then I calibrated and it looked horrible with banding all over the place, and I could see more shadow detail to boot.
