The issue that you describe is a known limitation of the current Google Maps App. While you may be unable to use the pinch zoom gesture using the TouchPad, you can still use the gesture with the iPad's touchscreen.

To be clear, are you suggesting that the iPad's screen-touch "pinch" gestures are inhibited while the iPad is connected to a Magic Keyboard - or, instead, that you are experiencing difficulties with the Magic Keyboard TouchPad? Something else?

Assuming the latter, do the Magic Keyboard TouchPad pinch-gestures work as expected with other Apps, or is the issue only experienced with Google Maps?

Be aware that the screen and TouchPad gestures differ in some cases:
