That's actually a rather common error for Finns. G and Q are almost exclusively used in loanwords and foreign proper names. What's more, some Finns pronounce the name for the letter Q as "guu". I've never figured out why.

That's how we Finns pronounce it in the Finnish alphabet. From there it easily slips into other languages that we speak. So it is like Finnish-English accent thing.
