There has to be a resistive path through any device. It is made of real material and definitely not an insulator so pure logic tells you that its resistance is bound to be less than the maximum obtainable in a purpose built 1GΩ resistor. At the very most, it would be limited by the resistivity of the package of the IC but, more likely, by the resistivity of undoped silicon (?).
