If you want it all in one place, that's going to be tricky. Spreadsheets only go so far for me. While I'm not as far into the mucky business of keeping track of so many worlds, I've found great use in Prezi.com (designed as an alternative to power point). You will have to pay for an account to have your stuff private, but the flexibility of the format is well worth it (also, being web based it has automatic back up).

How I use it is to up load my map first and make it big. Then I can add details to locations by making the detail frames smaller. In this way you can keep your character lists, magical references and other important documents in linked locations throughout the canvas.

If that doesn't work for you, may I suggest a file box with large folders for each world, then tabbed folders to hold all the different kinds of information (characters, locations, monsters, magic, etc.)

In either case, setting up such a system is going to take some time and effort. Maintaining it will also be time and effort. But it will probably be a net benefit if it means that your continuity is easier to maintain.
