I cannot boast of knowing more than half-a-dozen, in the whole range of my acquaintance, that are really accomplished.”

Mr Darcy sounds like he is saying all thewomen arojnd him aren't important to him and haven't achieved much but it could be that he has never met a woman who is different and ambitious
