The procedure is to export the data from Quicken in QIF format, then
import the QIF files into GnuCash.

There is a FAQ entry about this

http://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/FAQ#Q:_Which_is_the_best_way_to_import_data_from_Quicken.28TM.29.3F

When I transferred my data from Quicken a few years back (data going
back to 1993) I tested the import and ultimately decided the historic
data was not worth the trouble. I ultimately imported just the prior
calendar year to the present.

The QIF importer has gotten a lot of attention since then, so you may
find it better. But plan to start from scratch a few times to get the
kinks out.
