This is Lisp, where "symbol" means something quite different. It is perhaps too late to name the function correctly, but it is not too late to correct the doc. Just replace "symbol" by "character" everywhere. Note that there are many occurrence of "symbol" in replace.el, but fortunately the only incorrect occurrences are in `replace-match-string-symbols'.
