Can't say for sure, but the obvious answer is: Don't you sync all your contacts with Google? If so, you simply made them available to them. And even if that's not the reason: checking the permissions of Google Maps clearly shows READ_CONTACTS, so it can access all contact details on your device. Let's assume you didn't store their addresses as well, there's always "reverse phone number lookup". Be it some "Yellow pages", or details of other people's accounts at Google. Welcome to the "transparent society" ;)
