The first paragraph, and the one directly above the one about knowing more about furniture:
> There is a theory, popular among certain very old and very tired philosophers, that all memories take up a kind of furniture in the head. The good ones are armchairs. The painful ones are filing cabinets, usually full. And then there are the memories that are neither: the ones that arrive uninvited, settle in, and start terrorising the other occupants by kicking over the chairs.

Interesting. Which philosophers have this theory?
Yeah I read that. It doesn't mean he knows more about furniture than most. I agree with rogual, it looks nonsensical.
I interpreted as saying he knows a lot about different kinds of ideas / memories / things in the head.
Look up the definition of metaphor in a dictionary. Hint: nothing here is referring to furniture.
