A miner wouldn’t be able to do that. Only the private key owner of Google could do that. At most a miner could do a double spend attack (would cost a lot more than $2000), but that wouldn’t change the DNS record for Google.

The question is how do you know that the owner of the private key is the “owner of GOOGLE”. That’s what CA’s solve. Blockchain doesn’t solve this problem.
