I saw it as a humorous take on nihilism, myself.

Except that he forgot to put the humor in.
Nodaisho:
I heard that he had gotten really depressed while he was writing it, so he put in an everyone dies ending. Course, he could have been writing a sequel when he died, I remember hearing that it was either going to be the third Dirk Gently book or the sixth hitch hiker's guide book.
Surgoshan:
I think the end of the series was actually true to what it started as. The Ends of the Earth, a radio program that ended every episode with the Earth being destroyed in a different way. The BBC didn't go for it, and Marvin the Paranoid Android was among the very few things to survive to the following incarnation.

THAT'S IT! EVERYBODY DIES!

I kinda' liked it, though I will admit the first few books were a fair bit better. I just kept going all, "wait what" through most of it.
