This is a known limitation of the current implementation of the Google Contacts resource and KAdressbook.

There's work in progress on replacing the current KAddressbook model with KPeople-based model, which has smart support for merging contacts: https://phabricator.kde.org/T9595

Once that is done, this will be solved as well.
