Thanks. I guess there is no simple way to do it - like link to
maps.google.com?latitude.longitude ,etc. I can open maps.google.com and put
the url of the KML into it, or figure out the API (which I think requires a
site key you need to sign up for).

My KML track file did not sit well with maps - though it was OK with Google
Earth. It complained about the tags and did not display the path. It did
show the streets map, though, when they existed (small streets are not
mapped). http://gps.words2u.net/kml_files/SB_ArkFarm.kml

The point did fine. http://gps.words2u.net/kml_files/JardinesLankester.kml

Guess I will continue working on it...
