Not ALL herbivores do, four chambers are a characteristic of "ruminant" herbivores. Herbivores need to be able to get energy from plant material (a sugar called cellulose) and to do this they need to get bacteria to "ferment" the plant material they eat (they then live on the reproducing bacteria). The chambers of the stomach are where this fermentation happens.
Humans stomachs are designed to eat fruits and meat and therefor we do not need large stomachs (gorillas do because although they are not ruminants they live on plants).
