Why not /just/ make the doc a little bit more explicit ?
Instead of saying:
        It is especially useful in threads programming when information
        must be exchanged safely between multiple threads.
Replace it with:
        It is dedicated to threads programming for safe exchange of
        information between multiple threads. On the other hand, if you
        are only looking for a single-thread queue structure, use the
        built-in list type, or the deque class from the collections
        module.
If necessary, put it in bold ;)
