google.com doesn't have an ipv6 address so your test is incorrect,
query your DNS server and your ISP's DNS server for ipv6.google.com
and compare the result to:
dig @8.8.8.8 -t aaaa google.com
and
dig @8.8.8.8 -t aaaa ipv6.google.com
or
dig @208.67.222.222 -t aaaa google.com
and
dig @208.67.222.222 -t aaaa ipv6.google.com
