It’s just a character with no reserved meaning (it’s valid to use in the path, even without percent-encoding).
Instead of
https://www.google.com/maps/@38.1158476,-96.2044115,6z
they could have also used one of these:
https://www.google.com/maps/at-38.1158476,-96.2044115,6z
https://www.google.com/maps/38.1158476,-96.2044115,6z
https://www.google.com/maps/loc/38.1158476,-96.2044115,6z
…
They probably chose the @ because it can be read as "at", which makes sense because coordinates follow ("at <location>").
