The Russians have a 1,150kV system - there's even a video here on YT of those power lines - but it usually just runs at 400kV.
The longer the distance of the wires, the higher the voltage needs to be to reduce current (I squared R) losses. Problem is, however, voltages above about 765kV (the US maximum), you start getting high voltage corona losses.
Sure is... well its never actually "produced" at 1MV. Its usually around the 20-30,000 volt area then stepped upto whatever voltage is needed. 1000KV is most likely used for super long distances or in certain applications where they need as little power loss as possible. Its all in the Transformer!

Gondoltam, hogy a franciák ilyenekkel foglalkoznak, én is így vagyok vele.

is it even possible to produce 1000kv?
