Budha is not a God he was a Prince of ansient Hundustan(India) his real name was Siddhartha Gautama.(c. 563-479 BC), he become a first teacher of non violence.
As Buddha was a real person anyone can believe in him. As the belief in god(s) is a matter of personal choice some people believe in god(s) and some don't.
So the set of all people who believe in Buddha would include parts of the set of people who believe in god(s).
Whether there is a set of people who consider themselves to be Buddhist (as opposed to those who believe only that there was a historic Buddha) who also believe in god(s) (which is contradictory to the teachings of Buddha) is not possible to determine from any existing information.

Why didn't Buddha accept Creator God?
The Buddha held that it was not necessary to believe in gods in order to achieve enlightenment, but that his followers could believe in gods if they so wished. A great majority of Buddhists do believe in a creator god, whether the Abrahamic God, or another. It is certainly acceptable within some schools of Buddhism for their followers to believe in God, as the world's creator. ~That's correct. :-) I am a Buddhist, but I still believe in, love, and accept in my heart God. ^_^
