The warnings are embedded in a way that allows clients without JavaScript 
browsers to read them. This of course involves Google's crawlers. I also 
wonder why the warnings are really a problem in Google, since they should be 
rare in general (their very purpose is to help people to spot errors quickly 
and fix them right away). If you write something erroneous into your wiki, 
there is always a chance of Google indexing it without you being able to 
propagate the fix to Google's caches right after spotting it.

Anyway, if you want to disable them, just set $smwgInlineErrors = false; in 
your LocalSettings (after including SMW).
