They might simply know.  Or, more likely than not, someone cross-posted
an article to both internal and external newsgroups.  In this case, the
news server may have propagated the article to the outside world because
at least one of those groups was supposed to propagate.

Articles are normally distributed or propagated as long as one of the
newsgroups is carried at a given site, or as long as one of the newsgroups
propagates.  You'll see this all the time, especially from colleges.
