let me get into the tech a bit,
DNS servers are look up address tables i.e every address on the web is stored in terms of numeric values. The DNS contains all the address locations of the web and hence a faster DNS server means your connections to address locations are faster(cause the acquisition of the address is faster) and therefore decreasing the time to locate a address is less and time taken to load the page is less.

using this DNS server increases the performance on the whole and not only confined to the google products.
I suggest you to change the DNS servers and experience how quick the google servers are. I wont be surprised that you will concur with me on google after trying it out.
i am on bsnl and changing the DNS servers made a lot of difference in the load times of pages.
