This is a novelty item, not a banknote. The United States has never issued a one-million-dollar denomination; the highest denomination ever released for general circulation was the $10,000 Federal Reserve Note, last printed in 1945. Notes of this type were produced commercially around the millennium as souvenirs, with no legal tender status and no issuing authority behind them — the Treasury and Federal Reserve had no involvement whatsoever.
The "A. Ross" designer credit and the 2000 date place it squarely in a wave of millennium-themed novelty currency produced by private printers for the gift market.
