A creature with one hundred legs is called a "centipede."
There is no rule that says the name of a creature must be based on how many legs it has. Spiders have been around a long time- I doubt that the first person who saw one counted its legs- would you? A better question might be , "Why was the octopus so named? " -- I would guess, that being a sea creature, far removed from most people, it did not have a name when it was first seen by man, so somebody made up a name for it and chose to focus on its eight legs to choose its name.
The millipede holds the record for having the most legs of any creature in the world, with some species having up to 750 legs. Despite its name, millipedes do not actually have a thousand legs, but rather hundreds.
