I've weirdly heard people say this in the past too and I am equally baffled.
I think it stems from the fact that Google was slow at making C++11 available internally so there was a period of time where the rest of the world was using smart pointers and we couldn't. That may have just solidified a "Google uses old C++" meme out in the wild despite it being wildly out of date.
