Jan 07 - "A murder of crows" (what's up with that?)

I've seen this kind of plurals (or groups names, I think), where the ussual noun (as in "a flock of crows") is changed for another word with its own meaning ("a murder" is an unlawful killing). All this sounds really snobbish to me. Is this something in use? Is it wrong to use the common noun?
