IIRC it also means "world".

So... "world peace" is just....? Google returns a phrase that it translates back into "peace in everything," but the word does repeat in that phrase. I'm sure it's a contextual thing and I know some things just don't carry over between languages, but now I'm interested in how Russian works.

That would be мир во всем мире, literally peace in all the world

I've also heard миру мир: "peace to the world".
