Anything is possible. That's why TD's are supposed to investigate.

And when the pair are not available one must refrain from casual speculation?

Have you ever come across the concept of "breaking the transfer"? Many players would consider excellent support for the suit partner has shown as being a reasonable cause for bidding 2♠.

Yes I have. In fact my own agreements include a jump response in the transfer suit (e.g. 3♥ instead of 2♥ here) as "superfit" and maximum. However, North was (according to OP) apparently not prepared for such possibilities and had to handle an unexpected situation.
