Google Maps are served to the user as HTML+CSS+JavaScript (except Street View, which uses Adobe Flash). If you want to build upon their excellent JS libraries, check out the Google Maps Javascript Reference – it’s quite clear and includes many examples.
Also check out these excellent tutorials – although they were written for GMaps API version 2, they can be easily modified for the current (version 3) API.
