Marcelo is right. The page doesn't have a DOCTYPE so IE interprets the page using it's Quirks Mode instead of strict. Adding a DOCTYPE for any of the strict types will make IE render the map properly. I checked and this does fix the problem. Personally, I'd use my new favorite, the HTML 5 type: <!DOCTYPE html>
Incidentally, the gray space is caused by the width of a vertical scroll bar in a nested DIV tag generated by the maps interface. It's just a quirk of how IE Quirks Mode interprets rules.
