There is an application in iPhone called Map. we could give some destination and get the driving direction, distance and the time to that location from it. I need to know how this works ?
Is there any native iPhone frameworks that i could use to get this ? or is it from a Google API that i should use ?
and here's an image of the application
yes, use the mapkit and corelocation frameworks. also check this out

there are many links available stating the same. You should have look at the same. Like the one given below :

To get the routes you need, use Google Directions API. If you are using Three20, you can use extThree20Google extension

You can use google API for it.

I would like to know if it is possible to pass an address from an SQlite data base to GPS or Google maps and have it show on a map at the press of a button. If anyone is aware of a tuturial that could help me that would be appriciated.
I would also like to get current location and show local places on map, also populated from the same database. Thanks in advance.
In order to translate address to lat/long coordinate you will have to use the Google directions API since apple is not supporting forward geocoding.
You can take a look at this API - pretty straight forward:
http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/directions/
for iOS 4.x and below you will need to use the Google API but in iOS 5 Apple has implemented a really nice foreword geocoding API.
I need to build an application similar to iPhone built-in maps. I want to give the start and end location and the route directions to reach there along with the distance. Please help me.
You can use the following API to get the directions.You have to give start and endpoint latitude , longitude and it will display the result in an XML format.Then you can draw the route on map.
