Google Search is pulling "location" (meaning where is it) and "server 2008" and providing you with a result hence it is giving you a street name in France.

This works with a lot of different numbers as well as "Where is server XXXX"


Yep, I understand how it came to the erroneous conclusion, I just thought it was amusing.
