Actually, a not so amazing coincidence.
There are 7 billion people. Many of them have similar predictions to yours that don't come true. Out of the 7 billion, some small percent have their predictions come true, and they believe something extraordinary happened.
Statistically speaking, your experience is bound to happen. But since it happened to you, you put extra importance on it.
