Sorry no, this would require somebody writing a complex module/plugin I think.
Google maps use scripts and are output as html.
Your finished code is in an iframe like this

<iframe width="300" height="300" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" src="http://maps.google.com.au/maps/ms?msa=0&msid=100128738501091419408.00048de566a1d21ca227f&hl=en&ie=UTF8&ll=-33.800779,150.959809&spn=0.005349,0.006437&z=16&output=embed"></iframe>

which wont display in posts as far as I know, I dont know how (or if you can) allow that in post.

Found a way (but not tested in all browsers, just chrome)

Using your maps iframe code, change 'iframe' to 'embed'

Better still.. A new plugin called 'AllowRawFormat' by @Todd Burry
will create a new permission to allow you to set permissions to allow the posting of raw html. This can be allowed or denied per userrole, and allows you posting iframes including google maps.

Is there any way to filter out all iframe-tags that are not beginning with "<iframe marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" src="http://maps.google" ?

I would like to allow all my users to post raw html without the fear of troublemakers posting hazardous iframes...
