    Is your website listed in Dmoz directory, if yes then it might be taking title tag from that listing.

    you can remove the title from that listing by simply adding following meta tag.

    <meta name="robots" content="NOODP">

    If your searched keyword is listed in dmoz directory or you have used that keyword as H1 tag on your website, then Google shows that keyword as title of page. It doesn't have any bad effect.
