It's just one of the (many) available options. E.g. there's OpenDNS with 208.67.222.222 and 208.67.220.220 - and most importantly, there's the local DNS provided by ISP. That one is supposed to be the primary one, with Google's and OpenDNS's servers being a fallback or an alternative.
I use both G and ODNS - when the local defaults aren't working. I definitely would not recommend these as your primary servers, precisely because they're provided merely as a courtesy to you, without any guarantees whatsoever.
