The difference is that quantum mechanics does exist for anyone to understand and know that it does exist. The same cannot be stated for god.
Just because someone is unaware of something that already exists in the world does not mean it does not exist because of his not being aware of it. If there is verifiable proof to support its existence, it will exist despite people being ignorant of its existence. The same cannot be stated for god, because there is absolutely no verifiable evidence to support god's existence.
