Sounds more like deja vu than anything to me. While not really understood, it's a well-known phenomenon. The best explanation I've heard to date is that the regions of the brain responsible for recording short and long-term memory become out of synch temporarily, which makes it seem like you've already experienced an event that's simultaneously occuring. Note that there's not a lot to back this up, but it seems the most plausible out of all the explanations I've heard, is all.
