Because as far I can tell by looking at his powers, he has nothing to do with magnetism. If he did, everyone would be saying "rip mag" instead.

Also, as noted on the page, Gauss isn't just the name of a unit for magnetic induction. Carl Gauss is the father of many things in science and mathematics, not just flux density of a magnetic field. And referring back to my first point, that means it's pretty unlikely he was named after the unit.
