Basically, Guru Sahib said this Bachan with respect to Himself, in order to prevent future generations from worshiping the body of Guru Sahib as opposed to Akal Purakh. Previous Avtaars could not prevent their own worship, which is why, our Guru Sahibaan have ensured that we worship Vaheguru. Instead of giving the slogan Guru Nanak ki Jai or Guru Gobind Singh Zindabad, Guru Sahib instructed us to say Sat Sri Akaal! All glory to Vaheguru.
No doubt Guru is the Guru-form of Vaheguru but the purpose of Guru Sahib is get us to worship Vaheguru. So in order to prevent the mistake committed by previous Avtaars, Guru Sahib admonished us to not call them (their physical bodies) Vaheguru. Bhai Sahib Randhir Singh jee has written along similar lines while explaining this Pankiti.
