What made meteor crater unique?
The only thing "unique" about Meteor Crater, in Winslow, Arizona, is that it is perhaps the most thoroughly "classic" example of a meteor crater. It's relatively recent in a geological perspective, only about 60,000 years old. It happened on land, in an area not normally subject to extensive weathering. It was the first crater to be recognized as a crater caused by a rock falling from the sky. Thomas Jefferson was quoted as saying that he would rather believe that Yankee professors would lie, than believe that rocks fell from the heavens. But he was wrong. Meteor Crater was so OBVIOUSLY made by a falling rock. There are newer craters, and there are bigger craters. The Earth has been bombarded by falling rocks throughout its long and violent history. There is a crater in France that is a hundred miles across, so big that you can't see it from the ground; it just looks like old eroded mountains. But this is the stereotypical example.

What position does the crater from the meteor that is believed to have caused the extinction of the dinosaurs rank among the largest meteor craters on earth?
Perhaps in the "top ten" of craters that we have evidence of, but certainly not the largest. There is evidence of a much bigger crater - nearly obliterated now - in the Canadian Shield. The largest meteorites or cometary nucleii to strike earth were early in the planet's existence, and pretty much all visible evidence of them is long gone.

Why is Meteor Crater in Arizona still visible when most impact craters created by meteorites hitting Earth are not?
The Barringer Meteor Crater near Winslow, Arizona is still very distinct and visible, when other craters are worn away, for a couple of reasons. 1. Meteor Crater is relatively young; about 50,000 years old. The worst of the "intense early bombardment", when many of the Moon's craters were formed, was 3 BILLION years ago, and those early few eons used up most of the available rocks in near-Earth space. Those craters are mostly long gone. 2. Arizona is a desert, and has been since the end of the last ice age. There are few rainstorms, no floods, not a whole lot of natural erosion going on.
