In short: Pls. give http://maps.google.com/?force=canvas a try.
In detail:
Hm..., I myself experienced the issue today for the first time.
I then updated Safari to 13.0.4 without applying Security Update 2019-007 10.13.6 (as there are frightful reports about upgrade failures).
The problem still persists.
So the problem might be caused by some recent changes within Google Maps itself.
There have been similar reports years ago...
Google Maps recommends using 2D mode when experiencing problems with (now default) 3D mode on one of its Maps help pages at https://support.google.com/maps/answer/3031966?hl=en
2D Mode: This Google Maps version may work better on older or lower performance computers. It doesn’t have 3D images or WebGL, and it uses simple zooming and transitions. Open Maps in 2D Mode.
And yes: A bit dull, but working like a charm :-)

Google Maps shows me the same message as the rest of you. started Friday I believe. I had changed nothing.
You're welcome! Consider donating a Helpful to the suggestion. Apple may choose to then push it to the top.
Fixed with the above solution (2D Mode in Google.)
Thanks!
in my case it has returned to work without any changes on my side.
I still have the same issue as well...12/15/19
I have the same issue-12/15/19
Same issue here, OS 10.13.6 High Sierra, Safari Version 13.0.2 (13608.2.40.1.3). Started 12/13/19. Same error. Google maps works in Chrome.
Update: This solution worked for me:
Try http://maps.google.com/?force=canvas
Interestingly after using above link once, Safari now opens Google maps without problems. Thanks all!

Thanks!
Deep Diver, I triple double your opinion!
Use the link from mfrphoto. Worked for me as it did for him. Used it once and now working across the board. Or at least to the extent that I've tested it.
@drv185 – mfrphoto's link is not a real solution, as it just loads a 2D version of the maps. It's a workaround.
Got it. Was so thrilled to see a map come up that I didn't go further. Apologize for the misinformation.
For me the issue occured before the latest security and Safari update, so i'd say it is rather a google thingy.
