I fail to see how this difference strongly justifies the word "hallucination."
The computer is crunching numbers and probabilities of things and giving its best guess based on that, in both cases. If it's appropriate for one, it should be for the other.
(which, I'd say, it isn't, because "hallucination" implies "mistake by a human-like thing")

Google maps isn't choosing a nearest ice cream store based on probability, it's using an algorithm designed for this purpose.
