And is that considered to be "machine-readable"?

Yes. A program can easily extract the license and (more importantly) license claim verification URLs. Originally I wanted to recommend duplicating the latter in a URL-only field (WCOP) for programmer convenience but decided against it. See <https://lists.ibiblio.org/sympa/arc/cc-metadata/2003-June/000123.html>.

Is it anticipated that a search engine harvesting files with a particular license would use the first URL in the "copyright event" as the search criterion?

Applications should follow the second (license claim verification) link and obtain/index license RDF from there. Without looking at the verification page, the first (license url) should be considered ... unverified.
