Although, you are not being specific, enough, it sounds like you are talking about a series of .PNG files that are left behind after you navigate somewhere. Those files are cached for your route, in case you lose signal during the trip and can not download the files at that time.

If it is what I am thinking it is, it should be a negligible amount of data. If it bothers you, I think you can clear it by going to HOME, press MENU, SETTINGS, APPLICATIONS, touch GOOGLE MAPS, then CLEAR DATA
