Of course, you can *not* do this.  Nothing in any so called ‘BSD licence’ (and not any of them is GPL-compatible by the way) says that you have right to drop it in favour of GNU GPL.  They are not GNU Lesser GPL or MPLv2.  When two licences are ‘compatible’ that only means that works under them may be combined into a single work.
