Deities with multiple heads is not unique to India alone.

The Egyptians have depicted certain gods with multiple heads long before Hindu gods of similar type became common. There are also deities in Europe with multiple heads as well as in east Asia.

Multiple heads simply means all seeing and all knowing.
