Incredulity at how information could have otherwise been received is not evidence that it came from God.
I don't find anything the Quran has to say remotely impressive, it's all retrofitting modern science onto primitive nonsense. But even if they did know something amazing, that doesn't prove where it came from. That is a claim that needs evidence as well. And it doesn't meant the rest of the book is correct either. A magician doesn't get to say he teleported a card because no one can explain how it got from one hand to the other.
I can write a hundred true statements, and then another statement after that that may or may not be true. Would you believe the last one before finding out what it is?
