Maybe Google worked out your position from having recorded where your
specific router was located when it surveyed the area for its
pictures . . . ?

A clue is that, when I use my iPod Touch which doesn't have GPS on
it, Google Maps shows me in a slightly wrong location - probably
because the car didn't come down our (private, unadopted) road and my
house backs on to the houses of the road where it claims I live.
Whereas with my new iPhone with GPS, its location is spot on, of
course. I'd better try and stop being paranoid about Google.
