This is correct. The part where you say

is not. It has to be an international itinerary. A RTW is almost by definition an international itinerary, so you get QP access on flights that are part of the RTW ticket.
Also, if you fly QF AKL-LAX then you can connect to the QF LAX-JFK flight. This is allowed. What's not allowed is to fly into LAX on anything other than a QF flight number (so you can't use the AA codeshare flight), or to stopover in LAX. You have to go international flight-(QF)-LAX-(QF)-JFK with no stopover in LAX, or vice versa. See the discussion at the end of this thread
