Well of course the values in $a get captured when the assignment is made. What do you think was going to happen?

for (my $i=1; $i <= $hoeveel; $i++) {
   $y = $y + 155;
   $z = $z +1;
   print <<EOT;
 <g
     transform="translate(-124.85653,$y)"
     id="layer$z">
    <text
       xml:space="preserve"
       style="font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;font-weight:normal
